Mrs. Swink is a woman who lives on Ramona's street. Ramona notes that Mrs. Swink is one of those elderly ladies who always wears pants suits.
Even though Mrs. Swink calls Ramona "Juanita," she is fascinated to learn that Mrs. Swink used to go around on tin can stilts and call other children "pieface" when she was young. When Ramona and Howie Kemp made their own tin can stilts, Ramona startled Howie by calling Mrs. Swink "pieface."
Mrs. Swink called her "pieface" right back.
