Bear’s Porridge Explained
Soon-to-be GrandMa Bear got up from her rocking chair to check on her pot of salmon porridge that was bubbling on the stove. She let out a deep sigh as she recalled how she ended up with the recipe in the first place and how for so many years now had been her son’s favorite porridge.
The day she became fast friends with Gwendolyn, a human grandma, was one of the best days of her life. She had met Gwendolyn while fishing by the lake that day. Gwendolyn was difficult to miss with her flowery dress and colourful hat. She had approached Gwyndolynn and asked her how the fishing was coming along. Gwendolyn was quite startled to find a bear talking to her that she stuttered, “No-oot goo-ood.” GrandMa Bear had just smiled and sat down next to her and they exchanged names and so forth. Finally, GrandMa Bear offered her a few fishes if Gwendolyn could give her her porridge recipe. But, Gwendolyn wasn’t about to be fooled. She didn’t just want fish for one day if GrandMa Bear was going to be using her recipe more than once. GrandMa Bear soon realized that she wasn’t dealing with a vapid human. So, GrandMa Bear offered to give her fish every day for a year to own Gwendolyn’s salmon porridge recipe.
