“Are you still glad you decided to partner with her?”
“Definitely.I can’t think of any other job I would rather do.”
“Good.I hope you’ll feel like you can keep doing it right up until the baby is born.”
Josie nodded.“I hope more friends come along soon.We need people who are willing to fill whatever role is vacated when we have our babies.”She shook her head.“I’m glad we’re expecting.I just worry about Myrtle having to handle everything on her own while I’m out with the baby.”
“I’m sure she can handle it if she needs to.”
“I am as well, but it would be very hard for her to do it all on her own.She probably wouldn’t be able to serve food, and would only be a bakery.She likes having people come in and eat.Speaking of which, why do you never come and eat?You could eat for free!”
He shrugged.“I feel like I should leave that for the unmarried men.You pack me a lunch every day, and I eat breakfast and supper at home.Most of the men only get to eat fresh food when they go to the bakery and have you serve them.”
“I wish there was an easy way to send food with people, but the cost of the dishes is prohibitive.”Josie decided to talk to Myrtle about it.Surely the men could take dishes and bring them back.They’d brought Myrtle pie plates when she was selling out of her bakery wagon.
