Mary handed her precious earrings over to the clerk. With regret, she watched them melt her jewelry down until it had the consistency of peanut butter. A watch and thumb tacks

As she sat opposite him watching him cram another porkbelly into his mouth it occured to her that he ate like he drove - recklessly and with little regard for pedestrians. Snails and Spaceships
Given the political difficulties at NASA, the newest spaceship was being built at about the speed of a snail. Laundry detergent and a pomegranate (oddly enough, these two items are what happen to be on my desk at the moment)
After the sinister bacteria had contaminated the house, the laundry detergent smelled like overripe pomegranates. Well, that was weird. Ummmmm. . . . . markers and quilts.
