Jeanette sent me lots of puns. Here's another one.
There once was a poor shepherd named Yorgi. The only food he had to sustain
himself on was the milk he got from the sheep, and it tasted so bad that he
could barely drink it. As a result, Yorgi became thin and sickly.
One day, he met his friend Vladimir. Vladimir was a poor shepherd like
himself, but he was hearty and healthy. Vladimir told him that he had to live
on sheep's milk too, but he let him on a secret: a witch in a nearby village
taught him a magic spell that makes sheep's milk taste as sweet as the
richest cream. Yorgi begged Vladimir to teach him the spell, which his friend
did willingly.
Sure enough, Yorgi's sheep produced the most delicious milk he ever tasted.
Yorgi loved it so much, that he drank it by the liter. He milked his sheep so
much that they cried out in pain. Yorgi realized that he couldn't make his
sheep suffer like that, so he reversed the spell and resigned himself to
drinking normal sheep's milk.
Now, there's no ewes crying over spelled milk.

Still...you should both feel a bit sheepish passing on such humor!
