When I was a child, my mom liked to make food for dinner every now and then. And I remember one night1when she made dinner after a long,2day at work.
On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage, and extremely burned toast in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone3! Yet all my dad did was to4his toast, smile at my mom, and ask me how my day was at school. I don’t remember what I5him that night, but I do remember6him smear(涂上)butter on that toast and eat7bite!
