From 8-year old Hilda’s diary:
Aunt Tillie hadn’t seen the baby yet, so she went over today and she took me with her. The baby hasn’t started to grow. She has no hair and no name, but I suppose she will get both soon. I took her another bag of graham crackers but this time I said I’d eat them. I explained to Aunt Tillie that if you ate the food you brought to a baby that it would be nourished. No one said anything, so I ate nearly half the bag and left the rest.
