Once upon a time in a land far away, a beautiful, self-assured princess happened upon a frog as she contemplated ecological issues on the shores of an unpolluted pond in a verdant meadow near her castle.
The frog hopped into the princess’ lap and said: "Elegant Lady, I was once a prince until an evil witch passed a spell on me. However, one kiss from you and I will once again turn into the dapper young prince I am and then, my sweet, we can marry and set up housekeeping in yon castle with my mother, where you can prepare meals, clean my clothes and bear my children, and be grateful forever for doing so.
That night feasting on a repast of lightly sautéed frogs legs, seasoned in white wine and onion cream sauce, she chuckled to herself and thought: "I don’t think so."
