Martez points at his dad and says,
“My dad likes hot peppers .”
His dad smiles and nods.
Martez asks Kay, “Do you like hot
peppers?”
Kay shrugs. She has never had hot
peppers.
Kay has some food from the green
dish. She likes it a lot. She says, “Could
I have some from the red dish?”
“You can, but it’s hot, hot, hot!”
says Martez. “We have a saying in our
house: He is a brave man who has food
from dad’s red dish!”
“Brave or perhaps foolish!” says his
mom.
