英会話 – At the supermarket

Mother: Okay, on our shopping list we have eggs, milk, chicken, lettuce, strawberries, peaches, cucumbers, pasta, cheese, cookies, ketchup, beans, grapes, and juice.
Son: Can we get some ice cream?
Mother: Only if you’re good.
Son: Okay!
Mother: First, let’s go to the dried foods section so that we can get the pasta, beans, and cookies.
Son: I don’t like beans, do we have to eat them tonight?
Mother: Yes. I know you don’t like them, but they’re good for you.
Son: Well, as long as we get ice cream it’s alright.
Mother: We’ll see. Alright, we’ve got those things. Now let’s get the produce.
Son: Hey, look at this! Can I get this toy Mom?
Mother: No, we’re just here for groceries today.
Son: Please!
Mother: Not today. Put it back and let’s go.
Son: Okay…
Mother: Oh shoot , it looks like they don’t have any strawberries left today.
Son: We can get them at the other store.
Mother: Yes, but we don’t have time right now dear. We’ll just have to do without them for now. At least we were able to get all the other produce.
Son: What about the juice?
Mother: We’re going to get that now. Let’s go to the refrigerated isle where they have the juice and dairy products.
Son: Can I pick the juice?
Mother: Sure, as long as you don’t get apple juice. Your dad doesn’t like it.
Son: Okay, I want to get pineapple!
Mother: Great, that’s one of my favorites.
Son: I know, that’s why I picked it!
Mother: Oh, that’s sweet dear.
Son: Thanks!
Mother: Okay, we have those. Now what am I forgetting?
Son: Chicken!
Mother: Right! After that we can go.
Son: Was I good?
Mother: Yes, you were a little angel. We’ll get you an ice cream.
Son: Yay!
Mother: Now let’s get home and we can start making supper.
Son: Can I help?
Mother: Of course, you can help me cut the vegetables.
Son: Okay, thanks Mom!
