Saturday was a low-key day. Simmy baked some more valentines using up the last of the icing sugar.
'Nathan' came to borrow a sports jersey for a party he was going to.
When the doorbell rang... on a whim, Simmy slid the metal spatula under two cookies. Quickly, she balanced them to the front door and pushed the spatula under Nathan's nose.
"Want a cookie?"
"Oh, thanks," he said, but politeness dictated that he take only one.
Whose politeness?
His, I suppose!
Simmy pushed the spatula forward again and sang, "Take it, take another little piece of my heart..."
"Oh," he giggled and took the other one as well.
In the evening, Simmy felt compelled to finish reading 'What Katy did at school.' As with all novels, the culprit of the dastardly deed is revealed in the last chapter... it was Bella. Of course, Katy is the heroine and becomes everyone's friend and forgives the undeserved punishment that she received from the teachers...
Unfortunately, this book, written in 1873, just couldn't hold the attention of either Sam or the cat.
After reading a few pages, Simmy was distracted by the sound effects of snoring. Sam and the cat were competing for the 'Sonorous Boredom' award.
Sigh!
Good girls just don't make the headlines.
