.docxMeals. Dialogue 1: Your Ideal Breakfast
- Hi, Dasha, nice to meet you!
- Nice to meet you, too! Hm, what a marvelous smell! I suppose we should go to this café and have some breakfast.
- Yes, the smell is good, but I don't want to eat at all.
- You never want any breakfast, don't you? Just a cup of coffee and a sandwich.
- I don't eat much. My doctor once said, that I had to eat a proper breakfast, but for me one egg and a toast with marmalade is enough. Sometimes I can eat some cornflakes with chocolate flavor or biscuits and drink a glass of juice. I am a sweet tooth, you know.
- As for me, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I don't like sweets at all, I prefer healthy food. Usually I have green tea, bread with butter, some cheese and porridge. Of course, occasionally I want to eat something like scrambled eggs with tomatoes and herbs or cornflakes with milk.
- I call that a huge breakfast!
- No, it isn't. It is just most healthy and usual meal. By the way, what do you have at the week-end, Salome?
- Oh, at week-end it's different. I have something tasty, like orange juice, cookies with cream, and sometimes bacon or sausages - and coffee of course. And what about you?
- Oh! I usually have the same, porridge, bread and butter and tea. However, from time to time I have something more delicious, like vegetarian pasta or a cheese casserole or scrambled eggs with sausages, But, frankly speaking, I don't like any meat on breakfast.
- But you don't have to cook it yourself, do you? - Well, no. My mum always cooks the breakfast. She is good at it. I can smell different tasty things cooking, while I am doing morning exercises. I just couldn't start the day in any other day!
- You're lucky. But on the other hand, you have to eat what your mum wants to prepare for breakfast. I am perfectly free to choose any food in the fridge. All members of my family don't like breakfast and eat only sandwiches or eggs.
- And of course, you eat a lot before going to sleep in the evening! I can't think how people eat those huge meals at nine o'clock in the evening instead of having some proper breakfast.
- I see, you are constantly thinking about your figure. You are afraid of getting fat. But you can only go to the gym twice a week and everything will be great.
- Some hope.
