Henry: What are you cooking for your grandfather's birthday, Grace?
Grace: I was going to make lamb stew, but he's trying to eat less meat now, so I've decided on a vegetable dish instead.
Henry: Like what?
Grace: Stuffed peppers with rice and herbs. They're easy, although they take about an hour in the oven.
Henry: Sounds great. Have you bought everything?
Grace: Almost. I still need red peppers and fresh mint. The market closes at five, so I'll go straight after school.
Henry: I could help with the dessert if you like. I make a really good apple cake.
Grace: That would be wonderful, but he can't eat nuts, so please don't put any walnuts in it.
Henry: No problem. I'll bake it on Friday evening.
Grace: Perfect. Dinner is at seven on Saturday, but come at six to help me set the table.
