your daughter will be back soon. I'm going to start making dinner. You can just watch some TV in TV room if you like. We just bought a new TV with a LCD screen. The remote control is on the coffee ta
would you mind if I helped out in the kitchen instead? I do enjoy cooking.
this is supposed to be your vacation ; we'd like you to just relax.
cooking makes me feel relaxed. So, what are we cooking?
ok, well, we're going to make a pan of lasagne, a salad, and some garlic bread. Here's the recipe. Do you want to get the ingredients we need out of the cupboard?
sure. We should probably pre-heat the oven right away, too.
that's a good idea. Can you set the oven to 200 degrees Celsius?
that's a bit high for lasagne. I'll just set it at 180 degree and we can take it from there.
fine. I'll just get out the casserole dish, the saucepan, the salad bowl, and the baking sheet.
you know, I could do this myself. Why don't you go get the screwdriver and the pliers and go fix the vacuum cleaner so it works better?
I don't think it's broken.
well, if it's not broken, then you need to learn how to vacuum better, because it doesn't look like you've vacuumed for ages!
