It was Zhenya's 5th birthday, and as a tradition with her mother and brother, they were all home in their pajamas, sitting in the kitchen eating cookie dough. It was Zhenya's favourite, a recipe her mother had received from a friend - M&M cookies! "Mmm mummy, these 'r delicious," she said through her mouthful.
Lisabel, a usually stern woman, couldn't help but laugh at her daughter, with dough all over her face, "don't talk with your mouth full," she said regretfully.

"Happy Birthday Zhenny," Dimitri said to her.
She sneezed. "Oops..." she said, looking at the splattered dough over the counter.
