I'll start going through the fridges, then. I think there should be some stock cubes in the cupboards too, if we want to get a quick broth going.

[ And into the fridges she goes. They don't want anything too heavy so she stays away from potatoes but... carrots, leeks and maybe some celery should be fine. ]

... do you think we should make some tea, too?

[ or. would hot drinks after this particular trial be perhaps in poor taste. ]
