Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. There is a peck of pickled peppers that Peter Piper picked. If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where is the peck of pickled peppers that Peter Piper picked?

A ponderous puzzle: peppers, when picked by the peck, are not yet pickled, as pickling proceeds the picking process of peppers. Properly, a peck is picked whereupon peppers are pickled.

I propose Peter Piper picked a peck of peppers to be pickled and the peck of peppers is still being pickled.
