“Are you going to get a red licorice?” Daisy asked, knowing that was one of Emma’s favorites.

Licorice was on Daisy’s list of Sweetest Words along with caramel because both were a little unusual. Taffy was also on there, because it was so much fun to say, and chocolate was at the top of the list, because it was Daisy’s favorite.

“I’m thinking it might be a peppermint sort of day,” Emma answered.

Daisy wasn’t sure which candy to get. She always chose some kind of chocolate. But she was worried that she was getting to be a bit like her cousin, who always examined every flavor of ice cream at the ice-cream store, and even tasted a few, but always ordered the same thing — vanilla. Maybe she should try something that wasn’t chocolate. She compromised, settling on a chocolate with butterscotch in the center.

“What did you get for Lily?” Emma asked, because she knew Daisy liked to surprise Lily with little gifts. Daisy had picked out a pink taffy. When the girls got home, Lily was playing out front. She was wearing her pink leotard with the matching tutu, which were recent birthday presents, and which she hardly ever took off.

“Close your eyes,” Daisy said, and Lily obliged.

Then Lily put out her hand and tilted her face up. Daisy placed the surprise in Lily’s open palm and signaled for her to open her eyes by pushing gently on Lily’s little nose. “Taffy!” Lily said. “Yumm!” Daisy thought about the word taffy for Miss Goldner. But then she remembered that Miss Goldner preferred chocolates with cream centers.
