She turned around to find old Mary Otter staring at her open-mouthed while the turnovers in the frying-pan sent up a cloud of blue smoke. "The cakes are burning!" stormed Bela. "What's the matter with you? All that good grease! Do I pay you to spoil good food? You gone crazy, I think!" "Somebody else crazy I think me," muttered the old woman, rescuing the frying-pan.
The two boys sat on the doorstep and talked while Paul ate the turnovers. Ben watched the process with much satisfaction. "Ain't they prime?" he said. "First rate," said Paul; "won't you have one?" "No," said Ben; "you see I thought while I was about it I might as well take four, so I ate two coming along." In about fifteen minutes Paul went into the house to look at his father.
Press the edges together, ornament them and brush the turnovers over with the white of an egg; sprinkle over sifted sugar and bake on tins, in a brisk oven, for about twenty minutes. Instead of putting the fruit in raw, it may be boiled down with a little sugar first and then enclosed in the crust; or jam of any kind may be substituted for fresh fruit.
An' it didn't seem no time. Well, it's a-pumpin' now, Celestina." The mild face beamed with satisfaction, and Celestina had not the heart to cloud its brightness by annoying him further.

Mr. Perks made tea in a beer can, as usual, and everyone felt very happy and confidential. "My birthday?" said Perks, tipping some more dark brown tea out of the can into Peter's cup.
