       DINNER WITH LUCY’S FAMILY

Classes are over at last! It’s time for dinner. Frankly, I ’m hungry as a hunter. I can smell mum’s tasty borsch even from a distance. Do you happen to know that my mum is the world’s best cook?! She is especially good at cooking Ukrainian dishes, such as: varenyks, halushkas, cabbage rolls, pancakes and what not. Her mixed salad tastes like nothing else on Earth.

I bet, we’ll have a three-course dinner today. As usual, it will start with appetizers, like cucumber or cabbage salad, ham or sausage, cheese or smoked fish. I’ll certainly choose vegetables - they are full of vitamins and low in calories. For the first course it will be my mum’s specialty - Ukrainian borsch with pampushkas, naturally, mum serves them with garlic. The main course often consists of chops and mashed potatoes for garnish. Alternatively, we may have varenyks stuffed with cottage cheese. For dessert, I prefer a piece of apple pie and a glass of compote or just a cup of tea. As I have a sweet tooth, sometimes I have my favourite chocolate ice cream, to finish with.

Here I am at home. What’s for dinner, mum?..
