587 - WORRY

Mavis met her friend Elsie at their usual café for a cuppa and sweet treat. A notice at the counter announced a special offer: "AlteRnative Pies On Us". There were some experimental pies on offer containing courgette, turnip, radish and prawns topped with icing and hundreds & thousands. Mavis dithered, unsure of the contents, but the icing tipped the balance and she had one with her coffee. She found that the pie was quite yummy so went back for two more. Elsie said "Do you not worry that you'll put on too much weight eating all those pies?", she said. "At my weight, what's a couple of ounces or so more", replied Mavis with a wink.
