I daresay it's the peaches and the peppermint creams. I used to think it was rather rot putting off the sweets at dinner until after the meaty things. Now, I know it isn't. Sometimes there's really a lot of sense in an arrangement which seems silly at first, which is one of the things which always makes me say that grownup people aren't such fools as you might suppose if you didn't really know."
It was full of beautiful candies, chocolate creams and peppermint drops, snowy white cocoanut cakes, black and white licorice sticks, and cherry-red lollypops. But the three children never noticed those lovely candies at all. They just looked out of the glass door at that tiger, walking up and down the street, a-showing his teeth and a-swishing his tail.
But the stomach!... Nothing can be compared to its sufferings; for, in the first place, one must live. Pons thought wistfully of certain creams surely the poetry of cookery! of certain white sauces, masterpieces of the art; of truffled chickens, fit to melt your heart; and above these, and more than all these, of the famous Rhine carp, only known at Paris, served with what condiments!
More than once, as they sat under a thickly leafy grape arbor in the quiet green enclosure, Bleak had to pinch himself to confirm the witness of his senses. A table was delicately spread with an agreeable repast of cold salmon, asparagus salad, fruits, jellies, and whipped creams. The flagon of dandelion vintage played its due part in the repast, and Mr.
She has such a pretty way of bringing in Cecil. "Perhaps it is Denise." "It is cream, I know," announces Cecil. Denise's variety of creams is inexhaustible. Grandon smiles again, a sort of good-humored, noncommittal smile. It is something that pleases him very much, Violet decides, and a delicious interest brightens every feature. Denise welcomes them gladly.
Still, legends had reached us of children who actually had, from time to time, as much chocolate as they could possibly eat; and here, apparently, was one of them. "You can have all the creams," I said magnanimously, "and I'll eat the hard sticks, 'cos I like 'em best." "Oh, but you mustn't!" she cried impetuously. "You must eat the same as I do! It isn't nice to want to eat different.
These creams are not so good as those made from raw cream, but with care and good flavoring are quite as good as the ordinary Neapolitan Creams. There is one advantage condensed milk is not so liable to curdle when mixed with fresh fruits. These recipes will answer also for what is sold under the name of "Evaporated Cream." Use unsweetened milk, or allow for the sugar in the sweetened varieties.
Now this is due to Carlotta. The quantity of chocolate creams the child eats cannot be good for her digestion. I must see to this. July 2d. A telegram from Judith to say she postpones her return to Monday. I have been longing to see the dear woman again, and I am greatly disappointed. At the same time it is a respite from an explanation that grows more difficult every day.
"Say, Chip," suggested Jack Bates, "you size her up at the depot, and, if she don't look promising, just slack the lines on Antelope Hill. The creams 'll do the rest. If they don't, we'll finish the job here." Shorty tactfully pushed back his chair and rose. "You fellows don't want to git too gay," he warned. "The Old Man's just beginning to forget about the calf-shed deal."
Carrie could hear a little "click" that always came from inside the clock before it struck. "I have written out my wishes," she hurried to say; "but I don't want the chariot yet, because everybody is coming back from town. And I don't want any more hats and boots just now. But, oh! I do want some chocolate creams, and I wish this room was 'chock full of them."
