28 - Sunday, April 27, 1986 - North Shore News DEEP FREEZE GOODY COOLS FRIENDSHIP Neighbor frets over fr DEAR MISS Manners — The night before last, I tried to give a neighbor-friend a frozen delight that I had prepared. She said she was defrosting her refrigerator, and asked that J hold onto the goody for her. My question is: How tong? Is it up to me to re-initiate the offer, or should my friend assume the re- sponsibility of reasonably prompt pickup? Am I obliged to keep the goody for her, or is it Proper to give it to someone else after an appropriate period of waiting for her refrigerator to re-cool? Johnstone's | Sharon after.

Be- fore you are tempted to eat or give away the goody you offered her, call her and inquire whether she can pick it up right away. If she claims that either she or the refrigerator cannot take advantage . of your renewed offer, you are free to say, ‘It shouldn’t be frozen that long. I'll make you another one some time’’ It is generally understood that ‘‘some time’? in this context means ‘‘never’’. | ‘C.1.L.’?
