sticky fingers

After breakfast, I sent the children to

school and then I went to market. It was

still early when I returned home. The

children were at school, my husband was

at work and the house was quiet. So I

decided to make some tarts for tea. In a

short time I was busy mixing butter and

flour and my hands were soon covered

with sticky pastry. At exactly that mo-

ment, the telephone rang. Nothing could

have been more annoying. I picked up the

receiver between two sticky fingers and

was dismayed when I recognized the

voice of Mrs Bates. It took me ten minutes

to persuade her to ring back later. At last

I hung up the receiver. What a mess!

There was pastry on my fingers, on the telephone, and on the door-knobs. I had

no sooner got back to the kitchen than the door-bell rang loud enough to wake

the dead. This time it was the postman and he wanted me to sign for a registered

letter !
