The Beaded Moccasins: Prereading Exercise
Chapter 9: Sequin

As I press the pemmican into leather pouches, I think about my mother's flapjacks- crisp around the edges and soft in the middle.  Dougal and I ate them by the platterful with bacon and maple syrup, and butter if we had any.  We washed the flapjacks down with new milk.  If it was a special occasion, Christmas or a birthday, we sipped a delicious, smoky-tasting tea called Pekoe that came all the way from China.
