So we 'll just make a raid on the pantry . Fortunately it 's lovely and full . I had a presentiment that I was going to have company today and Charlotta the Fourth and I prepared . '' `` I think you are one of the people who always have nice things in their pantry , '' declared Paul . `` Grandma 's like that too . But she does n't approve of snacks between meals . I wonder , '' he added meditatively , `` if I OUGHT to eat them away from home when I know she does n't approve . '' `` Oh , I do n't think she would disapprove after you have had a long walk . That makes a difference , '' said Miss Lavendar , exchanging amused glances with Anne over Paul 's brown curls . `` I suppose that snacks ARE extremely unwholesome . That is why we have them so often at Echo Lodge . We ... Charlotta the Fourth and I ... live in defiance of every known law of diet . We eat all sorts of indigestible things whenever we happen to think of it , by day or night ; and we flourish like green bay trees . We are always intending to reform . When we read any article in a paper warning us against something we like we cut it out and pin it up on the kitchen wall so that we 'll remember it . But we never can somehow ... until after we 've gone and eaten that very thing . Nothing has ever killed us yet ; but Charlotta the Fourth has been known to have bad dreams after we had eaten doughnuts and mince pie and fruit cake before we went to bed . '' `` Grandma lets me have a glass of milk and a slice of bread and butter before I go to bed ; and on Sunday nights she puts jam on the bread , '' said Paul . `` So I 'm always glad when it 's Sunday night ... for more reasons than one . Sunday is a very long day on the shore road .
Grandma says it 's all too short XXXXX her and that father never found Sundays tiresome when he was a little boy .
So at for in like of on than that to
