I've sent out the invitations for the dinner party.
That's good. Now what should we do?
We need to plan the menu.
Oh, that's right. What do you have in mind?
I think I'm going to make the chicken salad we had at our 39th wedding anniversary. Remember, I asked Thomson, the chef of the restaurant where we often go, for the recipe?
Oh, yes. I remember. Time sure flies! Now we are celebrating our golden anniversary! And Thomson was very friendly. You know, chefs seldom tell people their recipes. They often keep them a secret.
I understand that. So you see, I have promised I will also keep the recipe a secret.
Well, Thomson will appreciate that. Oh, but did you forget that Linda doesn't eat chicken?
Linda? Oh, my Gosh! I forgot to invite her! She'll be mad at me. It just slipped my mind. Thanks for reminding me! I think I'm getting old!
Looks like you are!
