I am told six crumpets, and a new egg apiece besides at tea, to make merry with, and stories and little songs for Fairy. Willie was in his old college spirits. It was quite delightful; and little Fairy was up a great deal too late; and the vicar and his wife had quite a cheery chat over the fire, and he and she both agreed he would make a handsome sum by Eusebius.
After thus soaking, they are well washed in fresh water, thrown into cold water, which is raised to the boiling-point, and, after remaining half an hour, taken out and again washed, Gerard, to prove that "crumpets is wholesome," ate one hundred and seventy-five pounds of the most poisonous mushrooms thus prepared, in a single month, fed his family ad libitum with the same, and finally administered them, in heroic doses, to the members of a committee appointed by the Council of Health of the city of Paris.
He would have tea in his room not with Clare and crumpets yes, he liked crumpets. Dahlia went back to her work with a sigh. What, she wondered, would be the next move? It had not been quite so amusing as she had expected, but it had been a little more exciting. For she had a curious feeling in it all, that she was fighting Harry Trojan's battles.
Ruth Newville will be here; and Tom's classmate in Harvard College, Roger Stanley, who lives out beyond Lexington, is coming. He's a real nice young man, and I am sure you will like him. Tom's girl will be here, Mary Shrimpton; she is out in the kitchen now. She has been helping us make crumpets, crullers, gingerbread, and cake.
Set it before the fire to rise, and cover it close. Set on the fryingpan, rub it over with a bit of butter tied up in muslin, and pour in as much batter at a time as is sufficient for one crumpet. Let it bake slowly till it comes to a pale yellow; and when cold, the crumpets may be toasted and buttered. CUCUMBERS. The best way of cultivating this delicious vegetable is as follows.
I say, if you hear me squeak or crack anywhere, you'll stop me, won't you?" "Of course." "Come on then, and let's get there. Oh, crumpets! What a pain." "Lean on me." "No; I'm going to lean on myself," said Jem, stoutly. "I'm pretty sure I arn't broke, Mas' Don; but feel just as if I was cracked all over like an old pot, and that's werry bad, you know, arn't it? Now then, which way is it?"
I didn't expect that." His eyes, travelling downwards, had caught sight of a cup pushed close to the blaze, and a plate of crumpets beside it. "Or deserve it," said Sir Beverley grimly. Piers turned impulsively and took him by the shoulders. "You're a dear old chap!" he said. "Thanks awfully!" Against its will the hard old mouth relaxed. "There, boy, there! What an infant you are!
"And do you like hot rowls or cowld muffins or crumpets fresh butter or salt? And you, gentlemen, what do you say to some ilegant divvled-kidneys for yourselves, and just a trifle of grilled turkeys, and a couple of hundthred new-laid eggs for the ladies?" "Pooh, pooh! be it as you will, my dear fellow," answered they all. "But stop," says I. "O ladies, O ladies!
Do you remember I helped to toast the crumpets? What a halcyon evening that was, Matilda!" "Was it?" she said. "I don't remember the weather exactly; but it was nice indoors." "But, I say, Tillie, my own," he said, somewhat anxiously, "how does your ma like your being engaged to me?" "Well, I don't think she does like it quite," said Matilda.
I suspect that this was the first time many of my guests had encountered a tea cozy, since from that day they began to be prevalent in Red Gap homes. Also my wagon containing the crumpets, muffins, tea cake, jam and bread-and-butter, which I now used for the first time created a veritable sensation. There was an agreeable hum of chatter from these early comers when I found myself welcoming Mrs.
