"Poppy, did you understand any of that?"
"Umm...Karan bhaiya, Mummy has probably made Malai Kofta."
"Well, this dummy got it, and you act like you're so smart."
"Somebody please stop Mummy from watching MasterChef!" Karan cried.
"Oh really? I'm making all this delicious food for you, and you want to stop me from watching MasterChef! Eat this quickly; I'm bringing in the next item." Mummy, scaring them with her ladle-like sword, returned to the kitchen. Poppy and Karan started discussing the situation.
"World Food Day is going to be celebrated in the community centre, and Mummy's marathon is all for that," Poppy explained.
"But are we experimental lab rats that..."
"Be quiet, Mummy's coming!"
"Oh Mummy, please stop. Your experiments are never-ending! And what was that thing you made for breakfast this morning...what was it, Poppy?" Karan said.
"Some ridiculous form of poha," Poppy reported.
"You guys have no sense of food and taste! That was Vegetable Pounded Patty with Fried Nuts and Fruits," Mummy said smugly.
"Mummy, what grudge do you have against us? What's wrong with making the simple food like you used to?"
