But the skinny frog kept on paddling.<br \/>\nTen minutes later, the skinny frog felt something solid beneath his feet. He had churned the milk into butter and he hopped out of the vat. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the story of two frogs. One frog was fat and the other skinny.
