Quote by Gracie Allen
When my mother had to get dinner for 8 she'd just make enough for 16 and only serve half.
Summary
This quote suggests that the speaker's mother practiced the strategy of preparing a surplus of food when there were guests for dinner. By making enough food for double the number of people, she ensured that everyone would have enough to eat without feeling limited. However, by serving only half of the prepared quantity, she presented the illusion that the meal was abundant, creating a sense of abundance and generosity while managing resources efficiently.
