after you turn left go straight about
four blocks
the supermarket will be on your right
hand side
it’s very large so you’ll see it easily

let me repeat this to make sure i have
the directions correctly
all right
go straight on main street for one mile
turn left onto grayson avenue after the

pepper
you can put that beside the stove
and talk about these vegetables
those can go in the refrigerator
do you want this fruit in the
refrigerator

and how about these cans of food
these can go above the sink
mary
what about this bottle of soap
