Not only were completed puzzles sent in, but a plethora of letters asking cooking questions were sent too. In response, General Mills made “Betty Crocker” to reply to the questions in a personal manner. But why the name Betty Crocker? Well, crocker was after the retired director William G. Crocker. Betty was chosen because it had a pleasant and cheerful feeling. Soon after people sent in signatures and illustrations of who they thought Betty was. And…

I woke up the next morning from our hotel door opening. My family had came back from eating breakfast. I had food crumbs all over my old self. My stomach rumbled. I was so hungry.

I think that I was unfairly awarded a C in your accounting class this term, and I am asking you to change the grade to a B. It was a difficult term. I don't get any money from home, and I have to work mornings at the Pancake House (as a cook), so I had to rush to make your class, and those two times that I missed class were because of special events at the Pancake House (unlike some other students who just take off when they choose). On the midterm examination, I originally got a 75 percent, but you said in class that there were two different ways to answer the third question and that you would change the grades of students who used the "optimal cost" method and had been counted off 6 points for doing this. I don't think you…
