She loved rice-pudding; her heart beat fast in her breast when she thought of the brown crinkly skin of the rich warm milk of a true rice-pudding; also she loved hot buttered toast, very buttery so that it soaked your fingers; also beef-steak pudding with gravy rich and dark and its white covering thick and heavy; she also loved hot and sweet tea and the little cakes that Amy sometimes bought, red and yellow and pink, held in white paper also plum-pudding, which, alas! only came at Christmastime and wedding-cake, which scarcely ever came at all.

After congratulations had been offered, President Arthur escorted the bride to the large dining-room. There a table was bountifully spread, while on a sideboard were boxes of wedding-cake to be sent to friends at a distance.

I am afraid you forget how many of us are interested in it, as well as Black Bess." "Our notable housekeepers you know, tell us that wedding-cake will bear keeping half-a-century," said Elinor, smiling. "That is after the ceremony I am sure, not before," said Mrs. Creighton. Elinor seemed at last annoyed by these persevering allusions, and several persons left the group.

Hubbard, "that Black Bess, who made the cake you are eating, told me when she brought it home, that she hoped soon to make your own wedding-cake." "She has had the promise of it ever since I was five years old," said Elinor, "Is it possible that Black Bess is still living and baking?" said Harry. "I can remember her gingerbread, as long as I can recollect anything.

It was a pretty sight the starting of the little flotilla on a brilliant spring morning, with the sea as calm as a millpond, fantastic masses of white ice floating about in all directions, and mountainous bergs here and there giving dignity as well as variety, by their size and light-green sides and deep blue caverns, to a scene which might otherwise have been too suggestive of wedding-cake.

The writing of these letters is elegant and neat; while there are allusions to household occupations such as making the wedding-cake; there are also allusions to the books she has read, or is reading, showing a well-cultivated mind.

His own stomach could bear nothing rich, and he could never believe other people to be different from himself.

No, neither of these conjectures seemed to furnish a key to the tactics of Miss Rieppe and the theory that each of these affianced parties was strategizing to cause the other to assume the odium of breaking their engagement, with no result save that of repeatedly countermanding a wedding-cake, struck me as belonging admirably to a stage-comedy in three acts, but scarcely to life as we find it.
