Friday afternoon swing-set time at Huntington Park could have gone on forever as far as Mabel Watson Payne was concerned, despite the chilly gray weather. But we retired to a nearby bench eventually for snack-time. Mabel had brought along a banana and I had brought along a bran muffin. We agreed to share both. However, it is hard (or impossible) to eat a bran muffin while wearing mittens, so Mabel took hers off and arranged them with careful symmetry on the bench.
