In the summers, when we went to the country, we usually hired a temporary cook to go with us, so that Margaret could stay in town. We hated to leave her, but the idea was that somebody must stay to 32 ______ care of the house.

But this didn’t work well. No matter how few the substitute’s faults were, Father had no patience with them. One summer, I remember, there was a nice woman Delia who got on well with Mother because she was so obliging and pleasant, but who didn’t 33 ______ Father at all. “I don’t give a damn how obliging she is,” he 34 ______ to say. ”If she won’t oblige me by cooking something fit to eat, she can go.”

At breakfast Father would put down his coffee cup in disgust and roar: “Does she call this confounded mess coffee? Take it away!” And while Mother and Delia were frantically making a fresh pot, he would eat all of his omelet and bacon, and then declare that he was starved.
