"I'll have to have something else." Billy looked now, not for what she wanted, but for what she could find. And she found: some cold roast lamb, at which she turned up her nose; an uncooked beefsteak, which she appropriated doubtfully; a raw turnip and a head of lettuce, which she hailed with glee; and some beets, potatoes, onions, and grapefruit, from all of which she took a generous supply.

And an idiot would have guessed the truth, Alan told himself.
And now and then, even in Dade County, we get a frost that does more damage than a forest fire." As she talked they passed out of the grapefruit grove, and came to a plantation of orange trees. "These are the joy of Milo's heart," she said with real pride, waving her little hand toward the well-ranked lines of blossoming and bearing young trees.
