"Mommy, let's pretend this is a restaurant."
"Ok." (speaking in exaggerated accent) "Good evening, Sir. Welcome to Chez Mommy. How can I serve you this evening?"
(also in exaggerated accent) "I think I would like the chicken with bones."
"Very well, sir. I'll be right back." (speaking into the empty kitchen) "Chef, the gentlemen would like the chicken with bones." (bringing him a chicken leg on a plate) "Here you are, Sir. Is there anything else I can get for you?"
"Yes, I would like a drink."
"What can I get you to drink?"
"I'll have strawberry milk." (stage whispering) "don't forget to tell the chef!"
(speaking into the empty kitchen) "Chef, the gentlemen would like strawberry milk." (setting a cup on the table) "Here is your strawberry milk, Sir."
<minutes pass>
"Oh waiter!"
"Yes Sir, how can I help you?"
"I would have some dessert please."
"What can I get you for dessert?"
"I would like some runts please."
"I'm sorry, Sir, but we are all out of Runts. Can I interest you in a delightful pack of two Starburst?"
"Ooh! TWO desserts! Yes, I will take some Starburst."
