Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

Breakfast at the Harrison household sent everyone into a state of shock, everyone except Josefina.

Garrett rubbed his eyes in disbelief, while Hattie was a mix of surprise, delight, and admiration. Regina was fuming with anger, and Lena had a bitter taste in her mouth, losing all appetite for food. Then there was Annika, looking fresh as a daisy and brimming with pride.

Annika had crafted the eggs into adorable bunny shapes and carved a watermelon into an ornate centerpiece. And if that wasn't enough, she had prepared a pot of mixed pickles early in the morning, suggesting Josefina take it to the office as a snack.

Annika, a whiz at presentation, offered a visual feast that was both striking and enjoyable. But what was most impressive was Annika's soup. The aroma of the rice was rich and intoxicating.

Just as Lena was about to serve herself a bowl, Annika snatched up the ladle and served Josefina instead. "Miss Lena," Annika said with a smile, "Regina mentioned you only like her cooking. You probably won't fancy mine. Let's save these dishes for Mr. And Mrs. Harrison, and Ms. Josefina, of course."

Before, Lena thought Regina's cooking was the pinnacle, but now, faced with Annika's culinary delights, Lena suddenly lost her taste for the past meals. Hattie took a sip of the soup and her eyes lit up. "Annika, you sure know your way around the kitchen. This soup is delightful, really warms the soul." Garrett chimed in, "Dad loves soup like this. I'll give him a call; he should come over and try it."

After a quick phone call, Grandpa Robert soon arrived from his villa. Once he saw the table laden with a tantalizing breakfast, his appetite surged.

Garrett explained, "Annika here is Josie's new caregiver, responsible for her every need. Her cooking skills are impressive, as you can tell from this breakfast spread that took us by surprise."
