00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: Sarah Kelly. They were both ring to put their shoes

16
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: on because it was almost time to go to their

17
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: Grammy and Graham Pop's house, who they loved going there

18
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: as often as they could because they got to bake

19
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 1: some delicious cookies. Every time, or almost every time they

20
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: went to Grammy and Graham Pop's house. They put their

21
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: shoes on, jumped in the car and their parents drove off.

22
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: Oh boy, I can't wait to make those cookies again,

23
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: Sarah Kelly said Aidan. You see, these cookies were world famous.

24
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 1: Everyone loved these delicious chocolate chip cookies. It was some

25
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: kind of secret recipe that Grammy had from a very

26
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: long time ago, that no one else in the whole

27
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: world had. I think I'm gonna eat all of them,

28
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: said Sarah Kelly. No way, I'm gonna eat at least two,

29
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 1: said Aidan. They just couldn't wait to get there. Not

30
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: only did they love baking cookies with their grandparents, but

31
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: they also loved playing in their the woods in their backyard.

32
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: You see, in the back behind their grandparents house there

33
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: was a big forest and a river. Yes, this river

34
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 1: was so cool, and it even had a bridge that

35
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: you could walk across it. That was their favorite place

36
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: to go play and pretend and imagine things, and it

37
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: was a really cool place. Well, it felt like it

38
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: took forever, but they finally arrived Grammy Grandpop. They both

39
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: shouted as they ran in the door. Their parents had

40
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 1: some errands to run today and so they got to

41
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: spend their whole day with Grammy and Graham Pop. As

42
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 1: they raced inhive and started to get to work on

43
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 1: baking these delicious cookies. They followed the recipe and each

44
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: in every step you see, to make the most delicious

45
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: cookies in the whole wide world, you have to follow

46
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: the recipe perfectly. You cannot make any mistakes along the way.

47
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: And so when it asks for a cup of flour,

48
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: you have to put it in exactly one cup of flour.

49
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: And the same goes for the amount of chocolate chips

50
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 1: and the amount of sugar. And I can't tell you

51
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: the rest because it's a secret. Well, they finished making

52
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: the cookie dough and rolled it into all the circles

53
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: and put it on a pan and placed it in

54
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: the oven. And now it was time for them to

55
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: go play. Yeah, aid and I think it's gonna take

56
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 1: about twenty minutes, So let's go play by the bridge.

57
00:03:55,320 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: Let's go. Aidan and Sarah Kelly both in out towards

58
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: the bridge, and it had been a long time since

59
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: they had been there, but they were really excited to

60
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: be back. All right, what should we play? Said Sarah Kelly.

61
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: Um who goes there? What was that? Shouted Aidan as

62
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 1: he jumped off the bridge. Who goes there. It's just

63
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 1: my name's Sarah Kelly and this is my brother Aidan.

64
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: I Uh, who's down there? This is my bridge and

65
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: you cannot walk across it unless I say you can. Okay,

66
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: okay huh. As they leaned over to the side of

67
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: the bridge and looked underneath, they saw a grumpy old troll.

68
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: What since when did an old troll live under this bridge?

69
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 1: Aidan and Sarah Kelly both looked at each other. They

70
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: weren't sure exactly what to do. Uh, we were just

71
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: coming to place, Uh, Mr troll? Um, is there a problem? Like?

72
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 1: Can we just go to the other side of the

73
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 1: bridge and just play? Well, if you want to go

74
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: to the other side of the bridge, you're gonna have

75
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 1: to pay me a toll. A toll for the troll,

76
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: said Aidan. He kind of laughed to himself. A toll.

77
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: What kind of toll do you need? Mr? Troll? Well,

78
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: I like uh sweet things. I like the most delicious

79
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 1: treats in the whole world. So if you have a

80
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: delicious treat for me, then you can cross the bridge,

81
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:06,559
Speaker 1: said the troll. What about the cookies? Do you think

82
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: the cookies will be a good enough treat? For him. Oh,

83
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: I guarantee it. Those are the best cookies in the

84
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: whole world. All right, Mr Troll, we will be right

85
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: back with a treat for you. Just hold on tight

86
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: and we'll be right back. Aiden and Sarah Kelly ran

87
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: back to the house, hoping that the cookies would be ready.

88
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: As they ran back inside, their grammy said, oh, they're

89
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 1: not quite done yet, just a few more minutes. Aiden

90
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 1: and Sarah Kelly couldn't wait any longer. We're running out

91
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: of time. Uh what do we do? Um? Uh? Oh?

92
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 1: What if? Can we just take some out now and

93
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: you can bake the rest later? Oh? I don't know

94
00:06:54,040 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: about that, said grammy. We're in a hurry. Okay, you

95
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: can take two, said Grammy perfect. Aiden grabbed a plate

96
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: and Sarah Kelly opened the oven carefully and took out

97
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 1: two that were still a little floppy. They put them

98
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: on the plate and ran as fast as they could

99
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: back to the bridge. Who goes there, shouted the troll.

100
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: I think he'd forgotten. Oh it's it's us, said Aiden.

101
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: Remember my name is Aiden, and this is Sarah Kelly.

102
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: You cannot pass the bridge, and we know, we know,

103
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: we just had this conversation with you. Um, I guess

104
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: you forgot, but we have two delicious cookies for you.

105
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: Did you say cookies, said the troll. Oh okay, pat

106
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: passed them over. Let me let me smell them. They

107
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: set the plate on the bridge that had the two

108
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: soft cookies, and the troll climbed up to the bridge

109
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: and bent over and took a sniff. Oh, they smell delicious.

110
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: Let me taste them, and he popped both of them

111
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: right in his mouth. Wow, those are incredible. I need more,

112
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: more and more and more. The uh if if if

113
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: if uh, I just need two more and then then

114
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 1: you can pass two more cookies. Uh okay, but that's all.

115
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: That's all you're getting. No more, said Sarah Kelly. They

116
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: ran back to the house to get two more cookies

117
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 1: and put them on the plate and ran back to

118
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 1: the bridge. The grumpy old troll was eagerly waiting standing

119
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: on the bridge. He was tapping his foot because he

120
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 1: was a little impatient. Let's go, Let's go run faster,

121
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: said the troll. Aiden and Sarah Kelly ran as fast

122
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: as they could, carrying the plate. They set it down

123
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: and the troll, there's are so good, gobbled The two

124
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 1: cookies up. All right, you can pass. I'm gonna go

125
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: take a nap, but if you want to pass the

126
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 1: bridge again, you must bring me those cookies. And the

127
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: grumpy old troll crawled back under the bridge and fell

128
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: fast asleep. I think those cookies like put them to sleep,

129
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: said Aidan. Wow, all right, well let's go play. Aiden

130
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: and Sarah Kelly ran across the bridge to the other side,

131
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: and those cookies worked their magic, because that grumpy old

132
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: troll fell fast asleep and slept the rest of the day.

133
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 1: The two of them were able to play the rest

134
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: of the day without having to give up any more cookies.

135
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 1: And when they were done playing, they ran back to

136
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,599
Speaker 1: the house and ate their cookies with their grammy and Grandpap.

137
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: What an awesome day they had. The end, great job.
