Mishel: What horrible weather today. I'd love to go out, but I think it will just continue raining.
Shira: Oh, I don't know. Perhaps the sun will come out later this afternoon.
Mishel: I hope you're right. Anyway, I'm going to have a party this Saturday. Would you like to come?
Shira: Oh, I'd love to come. Thank you for inviting me. Who's going to come to the party?
Mishel: Well, some people haven't told me yet. But, Peter and Mark are going to help out with the cooking!
Shira: Hey, I'll help, too!
Mishel: That would be great!
Shira: I'll make lasagna!
Mishel: That sounds delicious! I know my Italian cousins are going to be there. I'm sure they'll love it.
Shira: Let’s also bake a cake.
Mishel: Yes sure, I love sweets!
Shira: Is there going to be a theme for the party?
Mishel: I want to have a children’s party kind of birthday.
Shira: I'm sure it'll be lots of fun. Once in a blue moon adults should have fun without limits too.
Mishel: I am planning to hire a clown!
Shira: A clown! You're kidding me.
Mishel: As a child, I always wanted a clown but we don’t have enough money to hire before. Now that I have a job and I can afford to pay for it, I'm going to have my clown at my party.
Shira: Oh that’s heartwarming. I'm sure everyone will have a good laugh.
Mishel: That's the plan!
