the
ladle and said to Mary: Look Mary, the ladle is a kitchen tool especially designed for
putting soup in the bowls, because it is a large round spoon, with a long handle. Mary used
the ladle for putting soup in the bowls. Everybody enjoyed the nice soup.

Title: “One day with the stool in the kitchen”

Mum was cooking all the day because she wanted to make a surprise party for her son. At the

stool and have some rest” she said. She

stool, a kitchen furniture, that it was next to the cupboard in the kitchen.
However, after a while, she felt that she could not rest properly because the
stool didn’t have
any back for her back. So, she decided to go in the living room and sit in the big armchair
they had. This was much more relaxing because she had a soft back for her back. When the
children came back from the school, the found her asleep.
