Scene: Round table in the breakfast room.
Characters: Robin and Marcia (the moms) and Pearl (the 19-month old child)
Action:
R: Pearl, do you like these [pointing at the centerpiece, pot of chrysanthemums}?
P: Purple flowahs
M: Here's a cup of water for you.
P: Nuke! Nuke!
M: You had a bottle of milk already. What would you like for your breakfast?
P: boggle and keem chee
R: I'm toasting the bagel. It's almost ready. Instead of cream cheese, how about jam?
P: jam
P: and sha sha jizz
R: Okay, I'll put the sausages in the microwave. While you're waiting, would you like some fruit?
P: fruit!
M: How about strawberries?
[No comment necessary here because all fruits are equally wonderful.]
R: Breakfast is served.
[As soon as food arrives, Pearl begins eating. She's a very serious eater. Robin brings the bagel and the sausage, both diced into tiny bits. As soon as sausages appear, she forgets all the other foods and eats them first.]
M: More, peas.
P: Sha sha jizz!
Hey, the girl likes her sausages! I don't blame her!
