A memory from when I was young and beautiful (now I'm only "and").

The person (Nisse, Nils) I remember as the first one I heard that from, once came to visit us about the time we had just started eating; my mother asked if he would like to eat with us, and Nisse answered, no thank's I just had two snowballs and a glass of water
