Little Dewey and his family were having Sunday dinner at his grandmother’s house. Everyone was seated around the table as the food was being served. When Little Dewey received his plate, he started eating right away.

“That’s at our house,” Dewey explained. “But this is Grandma’s house and she knows how to cook.”
