The community meal

Level 4
.

The neighborhood residents are getting ready for the community lunch in the square.

Hi, Brais! Did you bring the big tables? We need to set everything up before noon.

Brais

I brought four tables and ten benches. I don't think we'll have much room to spare, but it'll be enough. Grandma Carme had already brought the big pot for the broth.

Iria
! . .

That's great! I want you to put the plates and forks in that corner so people can see them easily. We still have to peel the potatoes and cut the bread.

Brais

Come on, don't worry about that. Before you arrived, Roi and Antía had already started chopping the greens. Your mother is really excited about the cornmeal empanada.

Iria
, . . ?

Yes, she told me I have to taste the filling when the hot dough arrives. It would be better to let the musicians know now so they know what time to play. Could you call the bagpipe player?

Brais
. , . , .

I already sent him a message a little while ago. He said he'd come around two, when his rehearsal finishes. Until he gets here, I'll give you a hand with the stoves.

Iria

Great, I appreciate you lending a hand. With everyone working together like this, the lunch is going to turn out perfect.
