In the snow-dusted camp kitchen at dusk, Jolly Fr. Ken kneads dough and sings at a wooden table as a flour cloud billows around him. Grumpy Joe skids nearby while glowing Snow Sprites twinkle overhead.
Snow whooshed into camp, a giggle Blizzard. Jolly Fr. Ken sang, kneading; flour poofed everywhere. 'Hey!' grumbled Grumpy Joe, slipping. Snow Sprites twinkled. 'Make the funniest bread and song!' they chimed. 'Deal,' said Ken.
Inside the lamplit camp kitchen tent, Jolly Fr. Ken molds a snowman loaf with raisin eyes on the counter while drumming metal bowls and singing. Grumpy Joe stands beside him, tickled by swirling Snow Sprites, almost smiling.
Ken shaped dough into a snowman loaf, raisin eyes. 'Too silly?' asked Grumpy Joe. The Sprites whooshed, tickling noses like feathers. 'Achoo!' they laughed. Ken drummed bowls, singing 'Loafy, Doafy, Dough!' Joe snorted, almost-smiling.
In the brightly lit snowy campsite, Grumpy Joe dances beside the table, attaching marshmallow earmuffs and pretzel skis to the dough snowman. Jolly Fr. Ken toots a whisk like a kazoo as Snow Sprites whirl ribbons of dough around them.
'Funnier!' chimed the Sprites, swirling the dough into dancing noodles. Grumpy Joe groaned, then boogied. 'Bread needs a hat!' he declared, adding marshmallow earmuffs and pretzel skis. Ken harmonized, kazooing on a whisk. Everyone snickered.
On the camp's outdoor stage under early evening lanterns, Jolly Fr. Ken belts 'Snowy Doughy Ho-ho!' beside a glowing oven. Grumpy Joe stands center, juggling pretzels around the finished snowman loaf while applauding Snow Sprites hover in the chilly air.
Showtime! Ken sang, 'Snowy Doughy Ho-ho!' while Joe juggled pretzels around the snowman loaf. The Sprites cackled, then bowed. 'Approved!' they chimed, calming flakes. Ovens glowed; bun-bells dinged. Joe grinned, 'Okay… pretty funny.'
