" As soon as the girls were in the kitchen, Beth and Eddie started to giggle.
What?” asked Caroline.
“Do you know what looks like cinnamon?” said Eddie. “Chili powder.”
Caroline gave a little squeak of delight.
“And do you know what looks like chocolate sprinkles?” asked Beth.
“What?” Carolina asked again.
“I don’t know,” said Beth. “What does?”

“Now here’s the thing—we’ve got to mix them so the guys won’t get suspicious. Caroline, you mix a little cinnamon and chili powder together, Beth, you do the chocolate sprinkles and cracked pepper, and I’ll get the coffee for Mr. and Mrs. Hatford.”
“Ha! Wally wanted both the chocolate and cinnamon. He’s going to get a double dose!” laughed Caroline. Was this a good party or what? "
