Synopsis

The girls look around the house for Mama so they can ask her if it is all right to go to the park and play. Kitty searches in the kitchen and is tempted by the last chocolate donut: should she eat it or share it with Mimi?

After deciding to share the donut, Kitty is upset when Mimi breaks the donut unevenly. Mimi says she'll take the smaller part but Kitty insists they get equal portions and re-divides the donut, mashing it into a mess of crumbs.

Mimi notes that Mama always manages to divide everything without any trouble. When Mama comes home and looks at the mess of crumbs, she demands an explanation. After Mama hears the story, Mama is proud of Kitty for sharing with her sister and offers the girls more donuts.

Kitty is upset because she doesn't want to be rewarded for making a mess, but Mama tells her that the donut fell apart because she left it in the oven too long.

Kitty asks Mama if she ever has hard time dividing portions equally, and Mama tells Kitty and Mimi that it isn't as difficult as it seems. She reminds the girls that they always manage to divide the Halloween candy between themselves. If there are an odd number of pieces, Mama says to cut the extra one in half. Kitty asks Mama about splitting things with an odd number of people. Mama shows them how by pouring them orange juice, and runs out of juice in the process.

Her hobbies include eating yummy cookies that her sister Mimi bakes, and best of all, as Hello Kitty always says, "You can never have too many friends."
