“Oh, hello, Rick. Just in here cooking?”

“That’s right, Mr. Thompson. Figured it would make a good impression to make dinner for you and your family. Which I hope to very much be a part of soon.”

“Well, Rick, Jackie and I think the world of you, and we think that Betty seems very happy these days. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. It takes a lot to impress me. Wait… is that salsa you’re making?”

“Yes, sir. With the Breville XXBCS500XL 9.6V Cordless Hand Blender. It’s great for chopping onion and parsley.”

“Chopping, huh? You’re not like that kid on TV are you? The one that got bit by a hooker?”

“Oh, no, sir. The Breville XXBCS500XL 9.6V Cordless Hand Blender isn’t for that kind of person. It’s got a NiMH battery and it’s dishwasher safe. It’s not an impulse buy. Oh, sorry if I was…”

“No, no, I was in the Navy, I’ve heard it all. You’ve suprised me, Rick. Most young men your age don’t care about a 1.2 liter jar. They’re only after one thing.”

“Not me, sir. I want to prove to you just how much I love Betty. Would you like a smoothie?”

“Really?”

“Yes, sir. The Breville XXBCS500XL 9.6V Cordless Hand Blender has a smoothie attachment. It’s even patented.”

“Well, Rick, I guess maybe I misjudged you. I guess I will have a smoothie… son.”
