O'Callaghan, having but two days out now, had decided to do the cooking herself on those days when she was at home. But never a word said little Jim to his mother on the subject of puddings. "I can read just how to make 'em. I'll not be botherin' her," he thought. "Pat and Mike is always wantin' her to take it aisy. She can take it aisy about the puddin', so she can."
They're as scarce as plums in a boardin' house puddin', I reckon." I present this as Jack Holden's view, not mine. He had the prejudices of the frontier, and frontiersmen are severe judges of their Indian neighbors. They usually look at but one side of the picture, and are not apt to take into consideration the wrongs which the Indians have undeniably received.
"You're goin' to have an especially nice walk this mornin'. It's such a lovely forenoon I almost wish I was goin' with you." Galusha beamed. "Why why, so do I!" he exclaimed, in delighted surprise. "Yes, I do, I do, indeed! Ah ah why don't you?" "Mercy me, I couldn't think of it! I must stay here and get to cookin' or we'll have no puddin' to-morrow noon.
"Zoeth, I've got a funny feelin', too, but I know what's the reason for it the reason is turkey and plum puddin' and mince pie and the land knows what. When a couple of old hulks like you and me h'ist in a cargo of that kind it's no wonder we have feelin's. Good night, shipmate." The day after New Year's Mary went back to Boston and to school.
I wuz glad to see 'em and done well by 'em in cookin'. I had a excelent dinner started roast fowl and vegetables and orange puddin', etc. but Whitfield, jest as soon as he sot down, begun to descant on the beauty of his islands. I groaned and sithed out in the buttery. "Islands agin! I had one island last night till bed-time, and now I've got one thousand and seventy ahead on me."
"I'm sorry I can't give you any potatoes, but the barrel's out, and it's too late to get any at the store. Likewise, you must excuse the puddin', as it's too late to make any." The two visitors appeared to think no apologies were needful, for they made short work with the trout. From the manner in which they devoured their supper, it was quite evident that it was some time since they had eaten.
Babcock defiantly; "I guess they can get along. Adoniram can make rye puddin', an' they can fill up on rye puddin' an' molasses. I'm a-goin'." "I dunno," said Amanda, trembling. "I'm dreadful afraid I hadn't ought to." "Well, I should think you could go, if Mis' Green an' I could," said Mrs. Babcock.
Is "Roughing It" more typical of his genius than "Tom Sawyer" or "Huckleberry Finn"? How shall we characterize "Puddin' Head Wilson"? Under what category shall we place "A Yankee at the Court of King Arthur" and "Joan of Arc"? The query reminds us once more that literature means personality as well as literary forms and that personality is more important than are they.
Ye said that ye knew the natur' of corn meal and that ye could fill a puddin' bag jediciously, and though it isn't ten minits sence ye tied the string and the meal isn't half swollen yit, yer whole bag there is on the p'int of comin' out of the pot."
If foreigners didn't talk so fast and run their words one into another, and jabber as if their mouths was full of puddin', it'd be easier for them as is English. Now, there's `wee' and `nong. I know 'em whenever I hear 'em, and that's a good bit of help." "Yes," answered Ann, "of course that's the chief thing you want to know in business, whether a person is going to say `yes' or `no."
