“There,” she said. “So what did you think? Delicious?”

“Quite, I’m afraid.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t tell your mother.”

“Thank you,” said Archie. “She really would frown at such a messy presentation of ingredients.”

“I’m sure she would,” said Tallie.

“So messy!” she mumbled through a full mouth.

Archie laughed. “But worth it, right?”

Tallie nodded, finished chewing, and reached for a third bite. “Totally!”
