Then, the lion threw all the rabbits into one big pile again.
He  11 to the fox. “Well now, Mr. Fox, why don’t you  12 the rabbits between the two of us in a way that you think is fair?”

My goddaughter, Shari, owns The Berry Factory in Sacramento, California, and her mother, Joan, and I were helping with the Valentine’s Day rush. We’d dipped hundreds of berries, arranged gift baskets and packaged orders to be   36    around the country.
By the end of the day, the two middle-aged women, Joan and I, were exhausted. But Shari didn’t seem tired. That was   37  Shari.   38 she was very busy, I’d seen her give away berries to everyone—parking attendants, mail carriers and hairdressers. “For me?” they would say, bursting into    39  .
 40 a“thank you”, Shari took us out for dinner. But there was a 45-munite  41  at her favorite restaurant. “No big   42  . There’s another place just up the road,” she said, driving up there. This time we walked right   43  .
When the waitress came to   44   our drink orders, Shari    45   into her handbag, pulling something out. “ I want you to have these,” she said,   46  the waitress a box of chocolate-dipped strawberries. “ She will love those berries!” I thought.   47   the waitress seemed very surprised instead. She only let out a “thank you”  48  grabbing the box and rushing into the kitchen.
A few minutes later, the waitress returned    49  our iced tea. “ I apologize,” she said. “ My best friend and I had   50  to send each other something every Valentine’s Day. But she    51   last year. I didn’t know how I’d    52   this day without her. Then you handed me that box.”
“ I’m so sorry to hear that,” said Shari. “ It’s not much, but I hope you can   53  them.”
“ Oh, I will,” the waitress said. “ See, every year we   54  sent each other the same thing: a box of chocolate-dipped strawberries bought from our favorite store, The Berry    55   .”
