Brown Cow vanilla cream-top yoghurt with walnuts and raisins:
We have found a new height of bliss in cuisine. (Hunger is a beautiful thing when there is food to assuage it, you know?)
I don't even like raisins.

I just finished The Chaos King, sequel to The Wall and the Wing, pretty much my favorite middle-grade written in the last decade.
There is a certain sly humor that will never fit into any other genre or age range. Having young narrators and young readers just has certain possibilities.
Like the phrase, about a rival's decorated school skirt: the statue bit her "right in the sequins". You know what part of the anatomy she's talking about. It's never said. It's hilarious as Charlie Chaplin being dignified.

Also: "...had an overabundance of self-esteem. She had esteem poisoning."

I found this while Googling for donkey images to put on petting zoo infosignage.
*gah CUTEATTACK*
I can't wait to meet a baby miniature donkey. It's on my list of to-do in life. ^_^
