Speaker 1
I found a great new Chinese restaurant last night!
Speaker 2
Oh that's great! What's it called?
Speaker 1
China Dragon. I know... Corny name, but it was great. They have the best szechuan beef in the world. 
Speaker 2
Really? It's hard to believe that, but I guess I'll take your word on it. Did you bring your boys there?
Speaker 1
Yeah. They love Chinese food too. They both had been out of town for a while, so it was good to see them. 
Speaker 2
Ah, that's great. Only one of my sons loves Chinese food as much as I do. The other really just likes Italian food, so it can be difficult to decide where to go.
Speaker 1
It sounds like an international fight!!  My sons just got back from studying abroad. They are leaving again in a few months. 
Speaker 2
It's nice that you got to spend some time with them. I'd be so worried if my boys traveled so far away. Luckily it will be a long time before they're old enough.
Speaker 1
It's stressful and I worry all the time, but I am happy for them. Enjoying them while you can. They grow up fast. 
Speaker 2
Oh yeah, definitely. Where have your boys been studying?
Speaker 1
They have been in Spain and they are going to Italy next. The European tour!!
Speaker 2
My younger son would be so jealous. They must be eating really well over there!

Speaker 2
I am a female.  I love going to places and trying new things. I have two sons.  I love my sons. My sons are still very young. I like Maroon 5, The Rolling Stones, Brad Paisley, and Luke Bryant. I love Chinese and Italian food. One of my sons loves Chinese food. My other son likes Italian food.
Speaker 1
One of my sons just told me that he has a Spanish girlfriend now.
Speaker 2
Congratulations to your son! Is he happy? Do they seem to be a good match? Have you met her, or gotten a chance to talk to her yet? That's exciting!
Speaker 1
They seem very much in love. I'm so happy for him. My other sons seem to be jealous since they're single still. She's very polite and mature for her age.
Speaker 2
Did they meet at school? What is your son studying? And is she studying the same thing? That's great to hear. Young love is beautiful.
Speaker 1
They met in school. They're both in college and studying to be chefs. I joked that now I get to eat food prepared by two trained chefs instead of one!
Speaker 2
Oh my goodness! I definitely see some tasty dinners in your future! No wonder they get along so well. Food is the way to one's heart, and it sounds like they will both be amazing chefs! Maybe they can even open their own restaurant someday if things go well! Let me know and I'll come to the grand opening, whether it be in Europe or anywhere else in the world!
Speaker 1
Funny enough, my son is great at making Italian food, and his girlfriend knows a few Chinese recipes. So you'd probably love both of the dishes they could prepare.
Speaker 2
My mouth is watering just thinking about it. I'll bring my sons along too! A Chinese and Italian fusion would be perfect for my family to enjoy! There would be no arguments over what to eat.
Speaker 1
You'd definitely be on the guest list! Speaking of which, how are your sons doing? Anything new with them?
Speaker 2
One of their birthdays is coming up. They will be thirteen. We are planning on throwing a surprise party, but sometimes it's hard to pull him away from his video games so it shouldn't be too hard to sneak his friends into the house. I can only hope we can pull him away from his computer long enough to get him to walk down the stairs. Teenagers. Can't live with them... and can't live with them.
Speaker 1
I know what you mean. My youngest son is addicted to social media and video games as well. He comes out of his room to eat, then I don't see him until the morning.
Speaker 2
At least they can pull themselves away from virtual reality long enough to keep themselves alive in real life. Ha. I'm trying to encourage him to get into programming or writing. My son was always very creative, I feel like he could be a great writer or game developer someday, but all he wants to do is co-op with his friends.

My son and his girlfriend prepared an amazing meal for me.
Speaker 2
That's so sweet of them! What dishes did they make?
Speaker 1
italian and chinese food is their specialty
Speaker 2
That must be an interesting clash of flavor haha! My sons would love that!
Speaker 1
That's very cool! Do any of your sons have any girlfriends?
Speaker 2
Well one of my son has a girlfriend for like several years, and for my other younger son I honestly have no idea. My younger son is just being so secretive, he won't even let me go into his room!
Speaker 1
My sons had that period also when they wouldn't go out of their room and play video games and listen to music. One of my sons has a girlfriend though
Speaker 2
Haha maybe our sons will mash well. Honestly I think my younger son might be secretly gay but doesn't want to come out yet for whatever reason. 
Speaker 1
Haha, nice joke, i think they would go very well together also, want to meet up soon?
Speaker 2
Yeah sure, when are you free to meet up?
Speaker 1
My sons are busy and will come in a week for winter break since they are in Europe, does that sound fine? Sometime in winter break?
Speaker 2
Yeah winter break sounds well, and maybe we can go to an ice skating rink -- did I ever tell you that I'm good at ice skating?

Do your sons like ice skating as well?
Speaker 2
The older one seems to like it while the youngest cannot be bothered. Are you going to visit your sons in Europe soon?
Speaker 1
Yes!  As a matter of fact, I'm visiting my son that lives in Spain next month.  This will give me a chance to finally meet his girlfriend of three years now!
Speaker 2
Oh nice. You must be looking forward to it. He must have told you a lot about her. Do you think you would like her?
Speaker 1
I think so.  She seems like a very sweet girl and she seems to care deeply about my son, so that's what matters most.  You know, maybe I can stop by and visit you as well, since you live in Europe.  France, Spain, Italy?  Where are you living now?
Speaker 2
Bless her, that's good to hear. That would be great! I live in Portugal. It's not too far from Spain. We can always arrange something. How long would you be there for?
Speaker 1
I'm planning to stay in Spain for three weeks.  Since you live in Portugal, I'd love to stop by for a visit if you're free this coming month.  I've always wanted to visit Lisbon.  It has the world's longest bridge!
Speaker 2
That'a great idea. We have a holiday house just outside of Lisbon. You are welcome to lodge with us.
Speaker 1
Sounds great!  I'm already very excited about my trip to Spain, and now I get to visit you in Lisbon!  I need to brush up on my Spanish and also start studying Portuguese.
Speaker 2
Haha, you've got your hands full then. Portuguese would be easier I believe. Spanish is a bit harder because it is spoken quicker. Would you be travelling with any company?
Speaker 1
No, I'll be traveling solo this time around.  My husband does not have a lot of vacation time, so I'll be on my own.  In the meantime, I'll start watching soap operas in Spanish and Portuguese.  They can be so exciting!
Speaker 2
Aww that's a shame. Maybe he would make it next time. Netflix has got some good Spanish shows. What is your son studying?
