What’s for Dinner?
Mother: I wonder
what we should have for dinner this evening?
Mona: Are you asking me?
Mother: Yes, I am. I really don’t feel
much like cooking, but the family must eat.
Mona: Well, you know me. I can always eat
pizza—or spaghetti.
Mother: So I’ve noticed. You’re
putting on a little weight, aren’t you?
Mona: I know. Don’t
remind me! I’m starting a new diet day after tomorrow.
Mother: It’s about
time! |
