“Yes, that’s all. Goodbye, Mr. Grocery Man.”
“Goodbye, Ruth’s Mother.”
So the grocery man hangs up the telephone and takes a basket and in the basket he puts some potatoes, some graham crackers, a package of sugar and some carrots.
Then prrrip! prrrip! prrrip! the telephone rings again.
“Hello!” says the Grocery Man. “Who is this?”
“This is John’s Mother. Good morning, Mr. Grocery Man.”
“Good morning, John’s Mother. What can I send you today?”
“Please, Mr. Grocery Man, send me some spinach and some apples and some butter and some eggs.”
“Is that all, John’s Mother?”
