For example, "Once she accidentally stepped on someone’s foot, and hurriedly blurted, “Oh, that’s quite all right!” Embarrassed by her slip, she resolved to do better next time. So when someone stepped on her foot, she cried, “You’re welcome!”"

became friends in the first place.

"When a large shloop reached him, he froze. The bottle continued to pour, and red wine f looded the tabletop and into the lap of a customer. Even the customer didn’t notice anything at first, being also hypnotized by the shloop, shloop, shloop."

Looking up, I saw that the eyes of everyone in the room were on our family. Mr. and Mrs. Gleason, their daughter Meg, who was my friend and their neighbors the Basel's they were all staring at us we busily pulled this strings of our celery. 
I infer that all of the neighbors were very confused about how they eat celery.

"I worried more about making mistakes, and I spoke carefully, making sure I could say everything right before opening my mouth.” In a way, she is like Camilla from Bad Case of Stripes.
