Grandmother asked Jan and Katrina to come and visit her one day. She / told them to bring their friends, Hilda, Kassie, Karl, and Bram with / them.
Hilda, Kassie, Karl, and Bram were all glad to go. So they dressed in / their best.
"We will meet by the windmill," they said, "and we will go along the / dike to grandmother's house." So they met at the windmill, and away / they went all together.
Grandmother was looking for them. She took them into the house. She / gave them each a bowl of curds and whey and some nice, fresh honey / cakes.
"Oh, how good this is!" cried Kassie.
"Yes, yes, Grandmother, no one can make curds and whey like yours," / said Jan.
"Or honey cakes either," said Karl.
When the children went home, grandmother gave each one of them a honey / cake cut like a heart. She gave each one a pretty shell.
The children said, "We have had such a good time, grandmother."
And grandmother said, "I have had a good time, too, children. You must / come to see me again soon."
