11. I only have one tooth...
so, I "gum" my cottage cheese.

Hence, my nickname IRL... "Curdgums".

13. But the only thing I have to put it in are slightly used Dixie cups...
I think there is some kind of law against putting yogurt in Dixie cups.

20. you're right. no one is allowed to transfer yogurt. maybe try
giving the kids an olive. or a dill pickle.

oh hell, everything is just too expensive.

i have an idea: don't answer the door!

16.  Kidney beans up the nose!
Kids love to stick kidney beans up their noses. Their parents will love you for enlarging the kids' noses.
