Speak English Like an American -- Lesson 13

 

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: Nice 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 reall 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 any more?
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.
