Jeremy: It’s really nice of you to make dinner for me tonight.
Keeley: I’m glad to do it. You’re been so helpful to me, it’s only fair that I return the favor. I hope you’ve brought your appetite.
Jeremy: You bet.
Keeley: Great! Here’s the first course, a light soup. How do you like it?
Jeremy: It has an interesting flavor.
Keeley: You don’t care for it.
Jeremy: It’s just a little greasy for my taste.
Keeley: Sorry about that. Why don’t you try this dish? It’s an old family recipe. What’s wrong?
Jeremy: Oh, nothing. I just don’t think it’s agreeing with me. Maybe it’s an acquired taste.
Keeley: Okay, maybe I can whip up something else for you...
Jeremy: I don’t want to put you to all that trouble. Sorry to be so fussy.
Keeley: No, no trouble at all.

I like cooking, but with such a picky eater like Jeremy, I might be cooking into next Tuesday!
