18 TRIP DEMUTH: Photo 137.
19 TOM HANEY: 134, five, six and seven --
20 TRIP DEMUTH: I have a question for you, you
21 spent a lot of time in this room, did you not?
22 PATSY RAMSEY: Right.
23 TRIP DEMUTH: This photo was taken later, I'm
24 not exactly sure when, but can you address this dish
25 that is on the -- what you call it, end table?
0376
1 PATSY RAMSEY: That is a little China bowl.
2 TRIP DEMUTH: Uh-huh.
3 PATSY RAMSEY: Can't tell what is in it. It
4 looks like oranges or something, or apples.
5 TRIP DEMUTH: When you were in this room did
6 people feed you?
7 PATSY RAMSEY: Yeah. I think Priscilla
8 brought in some things.
9 TRIP DEMUTH: Do you remember what that was?
10 PATSY RAMSEY: I remember somebody talking
11 about going to get bagels. You know, I was so -- I
12 kept looking at that.
13 TRIP DEMUTH: You don't recall what was in
14 that dish?
15 PATSY RAMSEY: I don't know if it is fruit or
16 something.
17 TRIP DEMUTH: Do you have any memory?
18 PATSY RAMSEY: It looks to me like Priscilla
19 brought in some fruit. Somebody talked about going to
20 get bagels. I think she brought that.
21 That was unusual because I don't usually use
22 that bowl for serving. It is like a decorative piece.
23 I would not have put anything in that bowl.
24 TRIP DEMUTH: I'm curious, do you remember
25 what kind of fruit you were nibbling on?
0377
1 PATSY RAMSEY: I don't think I nibbled on
2 anything. I lost my appetite.
3 TRIP DEMUTH: What was brought in, do you
4 remember?
5 PATSY RAMSEY: No.
6 TRIP DEMUTH: Okay.
<SNIPPED>
5 PATSY RAMSEY: Somebody else did this,
6 because I would never put a spoon that big in a bowl
7 like that, and I can't tell what that is, whether that
8 is grits or apples or cereal or -- I can't tell what
9 that is.
10 TRIP DEMUTH: Inside the bowl you are saying?
11 PATSY RAMSEY: Inside the bowl.
12 TRIP DEMUTH: Do you recognize the bowl?
13 PATSY RAMSEY: Yeah.
14 TRIP DEMUTH: Where do you keep them?
15 PATSY RAMSEY: In the kitchen.
16 TRIP DEMUTH: Where in the kitchen?
17 PATSY RAMSEY: Well, in like a cupboard over
18 to -- there is kind of big sinks over here. There is
19 an island in the middle and big sinks and above that,
20 the cupboard with dishwear in it.
21 TRIP DEMUTH: What would you use these bowls
22 for?
23 PATSY RAMSEY: Whatever. Cereal usually. I
24 usually -- I think I got those little bowels for like
25 salsa, you know, salsa, chips and salsa. I mean,
0475
1 because you had -- there were other bowls for cereal,
2 but that is (inaudible).
3 TOM HANEY: Those bowls, you described them
4 being on the cabinet or a shelf, and you demonstrated
5 it was higher. Is that something JonBenet could have
6 reached?
7 PATSY RAMSEY: No.
8 TOM HANEY: Okay. The contents of the bowl,
9 does that appear to be pineapple to you?
10 PATSY RAMSEY: Could be. Could be.
11 TOM HANEY: That is what has been described
12 as --
13 PATSY RAMSEY: Is it? It could be.
14 TOM HANEY: Do you eat or does anybody in the
15 family eat a bowl of pineapple?
16 PATSY RAMSEY: Well, the kids both ate
17 pineapple, but I would never serve a bowl like that of
18 pineapple. I would think I would put two or three
19 pieces on their plate with the rest of their food or
20 something, because, I mean, it looks weird to set out a
21 bowl like that.
