Lucas: We have been talking about a lot of things lately. Travel, camping, gym workouts. Luna: Right. And we did some ordering food too. But today is different. Lucas: Today we are staying home. In the kitchen. Luna: Oh, I love the kitchen. Especially when there is good food. Lucas: Yes. But cooking can be tricky if you do not know the steps. Luna: That is true. I often burn things because I rush. Lucas: So let us slow down. We will learn five simple cooking commands. Luna: Five commands? That sounds manageable. Lucas: Exactly. Just five verbs. Let us start with the first one. Luna: I am ready. What is the first phrase? Lucas: The first phrase is: Mexa bem. Luna: Mexa bem. Lucas: Good. Now listen closely. Mexa bem. Luna: Mexa bem. Lucas: Perfect. This means 'Stir well' or 'Mix well'. Luna: Oh, that is useful. When making soup, right? Lucas: Yes. Or when making rice. You always need to stir. Luna: Okay. So I say: Mexa bem.
