Frizzy sets her Baby Doll by the ice box, then opens the cupboard door to smell and look at the delicious pies that Daisy has made for the tea party. As she opens the door Tillie Tinkham scurries up to see if she can have some pie! Frizzy tells her Baby Doll not to grab Tillie's tail or she will become very cross.

 

Daisy, the perfect hostess, with the perfect pie, listens to her guest Becky as she describes the trouble of having a fussy Baby Doll. Daisy smiles sweetly and says, "I don't know what could be wrong, my Baby Doll is always perfectly behaved."

 

Becky had taken her Baby Doll to Nurse Elizabeth who told her that her Baby Doll was not colicky but was just fussy.

 

 

Daisy says "Frizzy, your Baby Doll looks like it's going to wiggle right off your lap."

 

Frizzy exclaims "My Baby Doll is always on the go and always hungry!"

 

Daisy has cut and served her apple pie and passed the plate of cheese.

Under the table, Tillie had her fill of apple pie and cheese crumbs, mostly left by Frizzy and her Baby Doll and of course some left by Becky who was trying to calm her fussy Baby Doll. Occasionally, Frizzy would giggle as Tillie tickled her foot whilst collecting crumbs.

 

Daisy and Diane both had delightful tea parties where they discussed dollies, apple pie making, books,
and many interesting things.
