My mother told me that mice come and eat your food if you leave it out.
     Later she left out about seventeen olives on a plate for visitors.
     They hadn't arrived yet.
     She went out of the room.
     I didn't want the mice to eat them.
     I was four years old.
     When she returned, all the olives were gone.
     I had been munching on them, I said.
     All seventeen green stuffed olives.
