100 Word Challenge #47

A picture prompt this week:

There was an old woman who lived in a teapot. With lots of children. She gave them some broth and sent them to bed and they all lived very happily. Until one day when calamity struck. It was very windy. The wind pushed the lid off. They heard it crash to the ground. Then they looked through the window and saw the little pieces lying on the ground.

The woman and the children waited all day long looking up at the sky in trepidation, knowing what was to come. Finally, it came.

Then they were in hot water.
