Mike: 
We have to make dinner tonight. Cathy: Yeah, ok, that's a good idea. Do
I hope you remembered!
Mike: I think we'll have to buy some
flour. We don't have much. Maybe only
200 grams. I'll start a shopping list...ok,
flour. What about cinnamon and
nutmeg?
Mike: Well, I thought we could make
that apple pie we did last time. what do
you think?
Cathy: Fine, I'll come with you.
Mike: Yes, we have a lot of apples. I
bought ten only yesterday. How many
do we have to use?
Cathy: Well, for this recipe, we only
need a little cinnamon and nutmeg.
How much do we have?
Mike: And quite a lot of sugar,
hmmm...it says in the recipe about a
cup.
Mike: Mm, let's go and have a look in
the kitchen.
Cathy: Yes, we don't have much but
there's enough.
Cathy: No, I didn't get any. How much
do we need for the recipe?
we have everything we need?
Mike: Oh, these containers are both full,
so we don't need any more. Now, we
need a little salt...
Cathy: OK, we have a lot of salt...
Cathy: right, first, of course, we need
some apples. Do we have any?
Mike: OK, I've got it. We need a little
butter too. Did you buy any butter
yesterday at the store?
Cathy: I think six large apples will be
fine. Now, is there any flour? We have
to use two and a half cups of flour. How
much do we have?
Cathy: Oh...we don't have any sugar!
We can't make apple pie without sugar.
Write sugar on the shopping list.
Cathy: Oops, I forgot actually. What do
you want to make?
Mike: Well, it says 100 grams. I think
we have some butter in the fridge.
Mike: OK, I will go down to the store
and buy these things we need. And we
can start when I return.
