It was too perfect to touch

It is a blancmange or ‘white eat’. Nobody at the party touched it. I think it was too intimidating.

Do we have that? I know we have jelly molds. My grandmother used to put peas and carrots in Jell-O. I have trust issues.

My grandmother was an early champion of vitamins. She latched onto them before anybody. If you sat next to her at the table, she would stare off in the middle distance and gently nudge healthy dishes in your direction while whistling tunelessly.

The weather is absolutely vile today and I’m sulking.
