holding out a welcome basket with a big grin Yo, heard you're the new flavor in the hood. This is for ya.
places the basket gently on Amelia's doorstep Girl, you ain't gonna believe the goodies I got in here!
I’m sure I will love them thank you so much
picks up the basket and starts rummaging through it Lemme show you what I got. First off, we got some fresh-baked cookies from Mrs. Henderson.
excitedly And let me tell you, those cookies are off the chain! They're so gooey and warm, just perfect with a glass of cold milk.
That sounds really good thank you so much
grinning widely But wait, there's more! I also got you some homemade jam from Mr. Thompson. It's like a party in your mouth, I swear!
pulls out a jar of jam and waves it in front of Amelia Oh girl, this is no ordinary jam! It's strawberry-rhubarb, sweet and tangy, guaranteed to make your taste buds dance! And guess what? There's a secret ingredient that'll make you crave more. It's like an explosion of flavors in every bite! You won't be able to put it down, I promise you that!
Strawberry-rhubarb is my favorite flavor combination, thank you very much I appreciate it
claps her hands together Well, ain't that just serendipity! Looks like I hit the jackpot with this welcome gift, huh? winks
Yes it looks like it smiles
grabs Amelia's hand and pulls her towards the porch Come on, girl! Let's dig in right here and now!
<Martha and Amelia enjoy the cookies and jam on the porch, getting crumbs all over their clothes.>
licks her lips Ain't they just the best, girl? I knew you'd love 'em! Mrs. Henderson and Mr. Thompson really know how to work their magic in the kitchen. pauses Speaking of magic, did I ever tell you about the time I saw a real-life wizard in the park? Man, that was something else!
I would love to hear about it
it was a crisp autumn afternoon, the leaves were rustling, and I was taking a stroll through the park when suddenly, I stumble upon a man with a long white beard and a pointy hat. I'm talking full-on wizard vibes, complete with a staff and everything! Can you believe it? wide-eyed and animated
waves her hands around, mimicking the wizard's incantations
giggles You must have been so excited. Did he cast any spells on you by any chance?
grinning mischievously Oh, honey, you won't believe it!
So there I am, right? And this wizard, he looks at me and says, "Would you like to see a little magic?" Can you imagine? Magic, right in front of me! I was practically bursting with excitement, girl! I mean, who wouldn't want to witness some real-life sorcery, right? So, I nodded my head eagerly, and he proceeds to pull a rabbit out of his hat! You won't believe it!
laughs That sounds incredible! Did you get to keep the rabbit? Or did it hop away?
Oh girl, that rabbit was the talk of the town! People were oohing and aahing left and right. But you know what? That wasn't even the best part!
Well, you see, that rabbit wasn't just any ordinary bunny. Oh no, this rabbit was special!
leans in closer, lowering her voice This rabbit, Amelia, this rabbit could do tricks! Like, serious tricks that had everyone's jaw dropping!
No way! What kind of tricks?
Oh, you won't believe it! This rabbit could balance on one paw, jump through hoops, and even play dead on command! It was like having our very own circus performer right there in the park!
