Aunty Bella tells Joseph to bring into his house: six chickens, a red rooster, a cow, and a goat before telling him to send them out. Joseph then sits down with his family to a Shabbos dinner and realizes that his house is not as little as he thought. Like Marilyn Hirsh's Could Anything Be Worse? the story makes the connection between Joseph's perception of his condition and the concept of Shabbat, which is a different way of perceiving what would otherwise be an ordinary day.
