In the morning I     7     in the garden, then I     8     or about an hour before going out to do some shopping in town. It was my sister’s birthday and I wanted to     9     to cook a nice meal for her. When I was in the supermarket, a new Thai cookery book     10    . I     11     the book and decided to buy it, because it had some very easy recipes. When I got home, I managed to make a good impression with my very first Thai meal. My sister thanked me and said that she really     12     today.
