What should I do, do you think?
About what?
I don't really want to go back into government work.
You know, but... Shouldn't I find something to do?
Wives don't do anything here.
- That's not me. It's just not me. - I know.
I saw a notice on the bulletin board at the embassy
for hat-making lessons.
You like hats.
I do, I do.
- What is it that you really like to do? - Eat.
And you are so good at it. Look at you!
I was thinking of taking bridge lessons.
- You like bridge. - I do. I like the idea of bridge.
Four points for an ace, three points for a king,
two points for a queen, one point for a jack.
And breast your cards.
Do you have any French cookbooks in English?
- I'm afraid not. - Gosh.
The salesperson.
Had no idea... Because, you see, there is no French cookbook in English.
And all I have is this Joy of Cooking by Irma Rombauer,
which is an excellent, excellent cookbook, but it's not French.
So I did ask my friend Avis De Voto
Right. Right.
Gosh, I thought I was speaking French to you!
Oh, my goodness!
It's my memoirs.
Oh, look.
Oh, it's fantastic! But it's in French!
You'll get there. You'll get there.
I know. I'm learning. I'm trying. I'm really. . .
Happy birthday to me.
