Daddy says
Sissy an' me can go swimmin' once I skint this mess o' cats. Mama asked how
many we caught. Daddy cyphered up one
for near about every finger and toe and reckoned upwards of a dozen. Mama said,
“Well I swannie, we got plenty lard but Sissy’s goin’ need to run yonder for
more corn meal if y’all want hush puppies.”
Well of course we want hush puppies. Sissy’d tore halfway out the yard before mama could call her back to get two dollars. She gave her a extra dime to get her and me a chick-o-stick for dessert.
