Perhaps we need a story refresher/clarification?

Overheard:

Little Bit had her Shaggy doll and assorted bridesmaid figurines from our wedding cake, playing with them. Shaggy was in repose in the middle of all the bridesmaids, who were standing rather solemnly around him in a perfect circle, praying. When asked what was going on, she replied, "Shaggy is under a spell. He ate a poisoned apple and now he's asleep for 100 years. The bridesmaids are bringing him gold, franken-stinz, and myrd to make him feel better."

I don't know whether to marvel at her creativity in combining the Nativity story with Snow White and Sleeping Beauty and a Hanna Barbera character, or to seriously begin working with the child to straighten the stories out!
