The Weather Channel: a short short story

Like piece below, this is for eyelashes.

Once there was farmer who had a pig.  The two geese ran relentlessly around the pond.  The farmer looked up and saw a rainbow.  The donkey did not show itself.  In the farmhouse, the farmer's wife was baking molasses cookies and apple pies.  The farmer was weary after completing his numerous odious chores.  Pitching manure is not the usual way to go to sleep.  The freak rainbow quickly faded, there being no rain.  The farmer's wife was wearing a velvet dress.  Afternoons are good for naps, but not evenings.  A rerun of The Mickey Mouse Club was on The Weather Channel.  How can I describe halcyon skies?  The door needed oil.  The farmer was wearing jeans and a silk shirt, sans tie.  The oven, set at 350 , leaked badly, making the whole kitchen intolerably hot.  The farmer and his wife went into the den to watch the weather.
