“Ambrosial!" Apicius said to me yet again one afternoon as we chopped beets for the evening meal. The knife revealed dark rings with every slice. There was something precious to me about black food- sinister yet seductive. Oh, how the beet juice would look in glass goblets, the torchlight glinting off the black surface! Apicius loved beet juice, and the rumors about its powers as an aphrodisiac were always a wonderful source of conversation with his guests.”

“Eleu stood up straight and turned to face them. “If promises are made, maybe we can come to an agreement.” Molawa nodded seriously. “Promises?” Kilikina thought for a moment. “Okay. What kind of promises are you thinking of?” Eleu hopped up on the largish boulder that sat beside him and plopped down. He solemnly put one hand up in the air and spoke slowly and seriously. “One. You must promise not to fall in love with me.” Kilikina started to giggle then put her hand over her mouth. “He’s serious.” Molawa said, “I had to promise the same thing.”

The two of them burst into infectious laughter that Kaimana and Kilikina couldn’t help but join them in.”

“Though [women] move in a different sphere of life, from the other sex; yet the duties they have to fulfill are not less important. In no instance are [their] duties more important than that of a Mother. In that character, they have perhaps the charge of a numerous family. And they ought to be capable, to teach the lisping infant to speak with propriety, and as the tender mind expands to fill it with virtuous principles---Early impressions are hard to be obliterated. And the man who is, from the very morning of existence, taught to think justly, to reverence virtue, and cultivate benevolence, will, in all human probability, be an ornament to human-nature. In this view, the fate of our Country, is in some degree dependant, on the education of its females.”
