“Will you make me some rolls, Katrina?” asked Jan one day. “Bram and I are going out in the meadow. Mother said we could stay until it is time to bring the cows home.”
“But I have no meal,” said Katrina.
“I will go over to Mynheer Van’s windmill. I will bring you some meal,” said Jan. So Jan ran to the windmill and brought home the meal.
Katrina made him some rolls. She made him a cake too. She put little seeds in the cake. It was very good.
Then she got a pat of butter and a slice of cheese. She put the rolls, cake, butter, and cheese in a basket. She spread a clean napkin over the top.
“Here is your lunch, Jan,” she called. “There is enough for Bram, too.”
“You are a good little sister, Katrina. Thank you very much,” said Jan. Then he and Bram went away to the meadow to stay until sunset.
