Out of the Kitchen 
Responding to my desire to learn how to throw a wicked curve ball, Mom says, 
without hesitation, “You’ll just have to wait until the baby bottles finish 
boiling. If you’re in such a big hurry you can help by taking them from the 
kettle.” She hands me the tongs, “Put them on the counter to dry while I get 
Dori from her rocker and dressed to go outside.” 
 
The little league coach, Mr. Temple, praises my winning performance, says I’m 
his new star pitcher.  
 
“What a great curve ball, Ace. I bet your dad is really proud.”
