As Easy As An Apple Pie

(1) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
Good Morning, Harold.
(2) Mr. Harrington: Listen
Good morning, dear. Would you like some coffee?

"Would you like some coffee?" means "Do you want some coffee?" But, "Would you like ..." question is very polite.

(3) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
Yes, I would. I could smell it all the way [vocab word=upstairs]upstairs[/vocab].
(4) Mr. Harrington: Listen
Well, let me get you a nice hot cup.

"Let me get you a cup" means "I will get you a cup."

(5) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
Thank you, Harold. What are your plans today?
(6) Mr. Harrington: Listen
Nothing special. I might watch some TV and take a [vocab word=nap]nap[/vocab].

"Nothing" is an indefinite pronoun just like "something" or "anything". We put an adjective ("special") AFTER an indefinite pronoun, not before it.

(7) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
Oh! Can you clean the [vocab word=garage]garage[/vocab] today?

"Can you ..." is a request. It's more friendly than "Could you..." or "Would you..."?

(8) Mr. Harrington: Listen
I don't really want to, Margaret.
(9) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
You should really clean the garage, Harold. It is so [vocab word=messy]messy[/vocab]!
(10) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
Besides, you said yesterday, "I will do it tomorrow [vocab word=if]if[/vocab] I have no plans!"
(11) Mr. Harrington: Listen
I can do it when you go to the [vocab word=salon]salon[/vocab] today.
(12) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
No. You will just forget. You must keep your promise.
(13) Mr. Harrington: Listen
Fine. But, you [vocab word=owe]owe[/vocab] me. You must do something for me, too.
(14) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
Okay. What would you like?
(15) Mr. Harrington: Listen
Can you make my favorite [vocab word=dessert]dessert[/vocab]?
(16) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
The apple [vocab word=pie]pie[/vocab]?
(17) Mr. Harrington: Listen
Yes! Your apple pies taste so good! I want it for the breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
(18) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
Would you like me to put some ice cream on top?

This question is the same thing as "Do you want me to put some ice cream". But, it is much more polite.

(19) Mr. Harrington: Listen
Yes, I would.
(20) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
Okay, apple pie it is! Now, clean the garage. It should be as easy as an apple pie!

"As easy as a pie" is a common English expression. It means something is easy, just like eating an apple pie is easy.

(21) Mr. Harrington: Listen
No, I can't.
(22) Mrs. Harrington: Listen
But, you must keep your promise!
(23) Mr. Harrington: Listen
I am keeping my promise! I will clean up the garage if I have no plans today.
(24) Mr. Harrington: Listen
Well, now, I have a plan. I must eat your apple pies all day long!
