Doll Stories and more
The Salmon Roll
January / 2003
This
is a story of Solveig when she was four years old in 1976.
She
has always prefered decent food to sweet things to eat.
We
spent the afternoon in a famous and luxurious cafè which
was named “Schucan” in Muenster/Westfalia in
Germany.
After the adults had ordered their coffee and
pieces of cake (when grandma or an aunt were with us we always
ordered after each other according to our ages) so finally it was
Solveig’s turn and she knew that she was allowed to order
something to eat by herself.
She said to the waitress who
was standing behind the counter: “I would like to have a
bread roll with salmon instead of a piece of layer cake.”
The
waitress looked in astonishment at the mother because a bread roll
with salmon was very expensive and rare in those days but
nevertheless this bread rolls looked very delicious.
So the
waitress asked: “Is she allowed to order one?”
Instead
of the mother Solveig gave her an quick-fired answer herself:
“Yes, she is. She likes them very much.“
