Nice to see you.&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Good to see you, too!  Might I interest you in a slice of strawberry shortcake?&#8221; Betty responded, as she reached for the strawberry shortcake that balanced atop her head.<br \/>\n&#8220;How about just the strawberries, dear Betty.  I&#8217;m off the hard stuff!&#8221;<br \/>\n&#8220;Not a problem.&#8221; Betty said as she pulled a small dessert plate out of her back pocket.  She then picked the strawberries off the top of her cake, put them on said plate and handed it to Janice.<br \/>\nBetty continued.  &#8220;Enjoy!!!  I&#8217;ll be on my way now!&#8221;<br \/>\n<strong>Moral of the story:<\/strong>  If Janice can say &#8220;no, thank you&#8221; to Betty Crocker, Queen of Cake, then you can say &#8220;no, thank you&#8221; to those who are offering you a slice!  No hurt feelings.  No hard feelings.
