Fiery Conversation

My Conversation teacher likes to keep things interesting for our little class of 5 people. On the day of our quiz on “Occupations” last week, we walked into the room, and she was wearing boots with an apron and a hat and was going around the room “cutting flowers” for each of us. I quickly realized that was Question #1 on our quiz and scribbled down “el jardinero” (gardener) while she transformed herself into a “bombero” (firefighter).
