Patsy offered to care for the eight-year-old daughter of her next-door
neighbor. She arrived in time to prepare breakfast, laying a generous
helping of bacon and eggs in front of the child. "Mother always serves
hot biscuits for breakfast," said the eight-year-old.
So, Patsy, very eager to oblige, hurried into the kitchen and quickly
prepared a plate of hot biscuits, which she laid in front of the girl. "No,
thank you," she said.
"But I thought you said your mother always has hot biscuits for breakfast!" said
Patsy in surprise.
"She does," said the child. "But I don't eat them."
