Amber Comes Over to Bake Cookies


Ted's girlfriend Amber comes over to help with the cookies. Amber has experience baking cookies from a former job. Susan leaves the kitchen so they can work better.


Ted: Mom, Amber is here to lend a hand with the cookies. 

Susan: Hi Amber. Nice to see you again. 

Amber: Good to see you too, Mrs. Johnson. 

Susan: That's an interesting hairstyle. 

Amber: Thanks. I'm glad you think it's cool. Blue hair is all the rage this season. 

Susan: Well, I'm going to take a break now and let you kids take over. 

Ted: Don't worry, Mom. Your business is in good hands with Amber. She really knows her stuff. 

Amber: That's true. I used to work at Mrs. Field's Cookies in the mall. 

Susan: You don't work there anymore? 

Amber: - No, I got fired. I have a real sweet tooth, and they told me I was eating too many cookies. 

Susan: Well, I'm sure you haven't lost your touch. 

Amber: I might be a bit out of practice. 

Ted: Mom, you can watch Amber bake if you want. You might pick up a few tricks of the trade. 

Amber: Yes, feel free. As a singer, I'm used to performing before an audience! 

Susan: Thanks, but I'm going to get out of the way. You know what they say: too many cooks spoil the broth! 

Amber: Will I see you later tonight? 

Susan: Yes, I'll be back in a few hours. 

Ted: Mom, why don't you just call it a night and go to bed. You've been working your tail off all day.
