On vacation in Hawaii, my mother called a cafe to make reservations for 7:00 pm.

Checking her book, the cheery hostess said, "I'm sorry, but all we have is 6:45 pm. Would you like that?"

"That's fine," Mom replied.

"Okay," the hostess confirmed. Then she added, "Just be advised that you may have to wait 15 minutes for your table."
