Hungry Nuta
ОглавлениеOnce upon a time there were father and mother and they had a daughter named Nuta. She was smart and beautiful, but very hungry. The reason was her character: she was a fussy eater and, all the time she was eating, she was very naughty.
One day her mother said: «Nuta, eat this tasty porridge with milk and raisins». But Nuta pushed the plate away and complained: «It’s disgusting, I don’t like porridge».
Father said: «So, sweetheart, eat then dumplings with meat, they are so delicious.» But Nuta refused to eat and started to cry: «I don’t like dumplings, eat them yourself.»
Parents asked: «Okey, what do you like? What do you want to eat?»
«I’d like some candies or cookies. I like sweets, you know!»
Parents thought how to make Nuta eat healty and tasty food and they came up with an idea.
One day they started to eat and mother asked her:
«Well, Nuta, you won’t eat, will you?»
«What do you mean? What are we going to eat?»
«We have disgusting lunch: mashed potatoes with meat.»
«Yucky!»
«That’s great! Then I’ll give your plate to father, and here is your candy».
After a long walk Nuta came home and shouted: «I want to eat.»
Father replied: «Your dinner is on the table.»
«But these are only sweets!» said Nuta surprised.
«Yes, you are right, but you like sweets. Our dinner was not tasty, yucky boiled buckwheat».
So Nuta ate sweets, but she was still hungry.
«Please, give me something to eat, but only real food!»
«What’s the matter? What’s wrong with your food?» parents pretended to be surprised. «That’s all you like. We have nothing else for you.»
«What? You don’t have anything? Look here!» Nuta ran to the fridge, opened it and pointed with her finger: «Look! There is some milk, meat, porridge.»
«But you don’t like it, answered Nuta’s parents without standing up from the sofa.»
«Okey, well! Then I’ll take it myself!»
«Yes, but don’t touch my porridge!» remarked her mother.
«So, what should I eat then?» said Nuta unhappy. «I am just starving».
«Well», agreed her father, «take a half of my cutlet».
«Sure», added her mother, «take a few spoons of my porridge.»
So became Nuta a smart girl with a brilliant appetite thanks to her wise parents.
