there are these onions i really must use , she lays a hand on the bag of onions resting on the countertop , and these carrots , she moves her hand to a bundle of carrots id seen her take out of the fridge at lunch , and ive got a chicken from monsieur dumont - he owns the chicken farm down the road - and so i think well have chicken with onion and carrots and perhaps i can get you and your brother to run for the store for some potatoes .
