How does Leo like Kindergarten?
So far, so good.
How's Mary's new job?
She's been cranky lately.
It's not easy to juggle work and family in this day and age.
She's been on my case for not helping her with meals.
Why don't you help her?
I don't know beans about cooking.
Well, it's not rocket science.
All right.

Wunderbar. （German expression used in English, which means wonderful.）
Oh, I agree.
Wonderbar.
So Ken, do you know beans about cooking?
A couple of beans, I think.
A bean there.
Little beans, really. How about you, Katie?
I love cooking but I don't use a cookbook. I just have a very big imagination. It doesn't always turn out delicious, though.
Oh! How about you, Jeff?
I cook for myself. I like baking better.
Baking meaning...
Like baking bread or baking cakes.
You have a sweet tooth. （sweet tooth =甘いもの好き、甘党）
I do.
I see.
I don't do it very often.

OK. What is it?

You called that a treat?

Crack open these eggs into this bowl. I'll pour the batter in the waffle iron.
Okay. Yikes! I accidentally dropped the eggs on the floor!
Hm… Let's forget about the scrambled eggs.
What’s going on in here?
We’re cooking up a storm!
The waffle iron is smoking.
Great Scott! The waffle is burnt to a crisp!
Who’s cleaning up this mess?
We are.
They are.
Good.
I’m off, bye.
Bye.
Pookie?
No thanks, John. It's your mess, not mine.
Eggs are good for you.
There are so many. I'm not Rocky Balboa.
Take one.
Raw? No. Scrambled? Yes. With some “shiso” in it and some ketchup on top.
Ugh…. High maintenance dog.
So it’s time to go.
Right, but we're cooking up something good for next time.
Great.

How’s the anniversary dinner coming along?
I think I bit off more than I can chew.
How did the cake turn out, Jonny?
It fell. Should I put it back in the oven?
No, don’t bother. It’s the thought that counts.
Is Mary there?
She just left.
Well, I’ve got to go now, Mama.
Okay. Good luck with your dinner!
Oh!
Nice. Well, I hope you didn’t bite off more than you could chew.
I think we did.
