It took place at the Biltmore Hotel, which, to my eight-year-old mind, was just about the fancies place to eat．My      , my mother, and I were having lunch after a morning spent shopping．I ordered a Salisbury steak．When brought to the table, it was       by a plate of peas．I do not like peas now．I did not like peas then．I have always hated peas．And I       was not about to eat them now．"Eat your peas," my grandmother said．
"Mother," said my mother in her       voice．"He doesn't like peas．Leave him alone."
My grandmother did not reply．She            in my direction, looked at me in the eye, and said the       words that changed my life: "I'll pay you five dollars if you eat those peas." 
I had absolutely no idea of the coming         ． I only knew that five dollars was an enormous, nearly       amount of money, and as awful as peas were, only one plate of them stood between me and the       of that five dollars．I began to force the terrible things down my      ．
My mother was very angry．My grandmother had that       look of someone who has thrown down an unbeatable trump card（王牌）．"I can do what I want, Ellen, and you can't stop me." My mother glared at her mother．She glared at me.
I, of course, kept shoving peas down my throat．The       made me nervous, and every single pea made me want to throw up, but the magical image of that five dollars       before me, and I finally swallowed down every last one of them．My grandmother handed me the five dollars in a（n）       way．My mother continued to glare in silence．And the       ended．Or so I thought．
My grandmother left for Aunt Lillian's a few weeks later．That night, at dinner, my mother served my favorite foods．Along with them came a big, steaming bowl of peas．She offered me some peas, and I certainly      ．My mother fixed me with a cold       as she put a huge pile of peas onto my plate．Then came the words that were to       me for years．
"You ate them for      ," she said．"You can eat them for love."
What possible argument could I gather against that? There was none．I ate them that day and every other time they were       thereafter．
