Lesson 13: Awber Comes Over To Bake Cookies
Ted's girlfriend Amber comes over to help with the cookies. Amber has experience baking cookies from a former job. Susan leaves the kitchen so they can work better.
Ted: Mom, Amber is here to lend a hand with the cookies.
Susan: Hi Amber. Nice to see you again.
Amber: Good to see you too, Mrs. Johnson.
Susan: That's an interesting hairstyle.*
Amber: Thanks. I'm glad you think it's cool. Blue hair is all the rage this season.
Susan: Well, I'm going to take a break now and let you kids take over.
Ted: Don't worry, Mom. Your business is in good hands with Amber. She really knows her stuff.
Amber: That's true. I used to work at Mrs. Field's Cookies** in the mall.
Susan: You don't work there anymore?
Amber: No, I got fired. I have a real sweet tooth, and they told me I was eating too many cookies.
Susan: Well, I'm sure you haven't lost your touch.
Amber: I might be a bit out of practice.
Ted: Mom, you can watch Amber bake if you want. You might pick up a few tricks of the trade.
Amber: Yes, feel free. As a singer, I'm used to performing before an audience!
Susan: Thanks, but I'm going to get out of the way. You know what they say: too many cooks spoil the broth!
Amber: Will I see you later tonight?
Susan: Yes, I'll be back in a few hours.
Ted: Mom, why don't you just call it a night and go to bed. You've been working your tail off all day.
* When somebody says something is "interesting" it often means they don't like it, but they want to be polite.
