Misheard

(my cousin) Evan: We appreciate that.
W: Wha ... what did he say?
Me: Who?
W: Him ... about ... about a ... about a piece of cake?
Me: Oh! He said "appreicate," not "a piece of cake." Appreciate means to be thankful for something.

I don't think Wrigley was very thankful, though she probably would have appreciated a piece of cake.
