So let's dive in At the farhampton Inn, we don't cook with grease our menu is organic farm-to-table locally grown no grease Sir, I am from Minnesota where every meal is cooked with grease and my father dealt a bad food the tastiest eats in the whole Gosh-darn world, so and how would your father's help? The point is it tastes really good. Also we needed to help a friend recover from a hangover wait a second.

You know, this look great. I want my mom's LT sandwiches And that's the first and last time I ever ate bacon At the farhampton Inn, we don't cook with grease our menu is organic in a traditional sort of hotel grease Animal fat that is produced by heating meat you can use grease for cooking organic when we say a food is organic We mean that it has been grown or made without the use of pesticides artificial chemicals or industrial methods Example organic vegetable is a much tastier than the ones you get from the supermarket farm-to-table Farm-to-table locally grown no grease Farm-to-table a farm is a piece of land used for growing plant products or raising animals the term farm-to-table Refers to food going from the farm where it's been produced straight to one's dining table This is an opposition to the more conventional industrial method which requires food to go through many other stages I am from Minnesota where every meal is cooked with grease, Minnesota an American state in the Midwest famous for their traditional values and way of life and my father dealt a bad food the tastiest eats in the whole gosh-darn world, so Doug to give somebody or something a particular name often in a humorous or critical way Example the media dubbed Madonna the Queen of Pop Tastiest eats tasty means delicious eats as a noun is slang meaning food example Let's grab some eats at that diner before the concert whole gosh-darn world. We commonly say that something is the best thing in the world This phrase as it is already implies emphasis But we can add some more by saying in the whole world Marshall here goes even further by adding gosh-darn These are both more polite alternative words that one might use around children Gosh is a lighter word for God and darn for them. And how would your father's help? And how is your father's health? and How is your father's help? When does it taste really good the point is we use this phrase as an introduction to a conclusion or Most important part of what we're saying as Marshall those here We may sometimes omit the and just say point is example point is besides exercising You also need to improve your diet If you want to lose weight also pay attention to the pronunciation of this phrase the NT sound becomes an N and links to is What does it taste really good? What is buddy's? Point is it taste really good learn more about native connected speech in a video We made by clicking at the top right corner Also, we needed to help a friend recover from a hangover hangover the resulting sick feeling from drinking too much alcohol Example last night was fun. But today I woke up with a huge hangover. There's bacon right here and where there's bacon There's bacon grease bacon a type of meat from a pig. There's salted and dried or smoked with different types of wood for example, Applewood to add flavor It is a popular breakfast item in the United States If we aren't making any more bacon today, not unless at all somehow it gets eaten in the 10 minutes before breakfast is over Unless yours to say what will happen If something else does not happen example Unless you study hard. You won't pass the exam somehow in a way that is not known or certain example He somehow will find a way to make the money. He needs a mountain of food A mountain of something a huge quantity of something example, I would do it but I've got a mountain of homework ticking clock ticking refers to the sound a clock makes as each second passes, but when we talk about a ticking clock We mean that the time available to do something is finishing and therefore you must hurry you live for this stuff Ted uses this expression to mean that Marshall finds these types of challenges Exciting and pleasing. You can say this to talk about something that you really enjoy Example you're wondering if I'd like to go on a road trip across Europe. Of course, I would I live All right, so you just learned the expression to live for something now tell me what do you live for? I will be correcting many of your examples your sentences down in the comments below. So pause this video real quick Go to practice your English and then we'll get back into the lesson I'm a Columbia educated lawyer Columbia educated We can use the name of a university especially a famous one plus educated to create an adjective Describing where someone received their degree. For example, I could say I am a University of Colorado educated teacher Columbia is a famous private university in Manhattan poised to become Poised to become a judge before age 35 poised to do something completely ready for something or to do something Example that team is poised to win the championship and remind me remind someone of something If something reminds you of something it makes you remember it example Can you remind me what exactly the recipe for this dish is how did you celebrate? How did you celebrate getting accepted into Columbia You eat one eight pound block of fudge in 12 minutes, and you're marked for life fudge a soft sweet American candy made by heating milk butter and sugar Marked for something infamous or remembered in a negative way for something Example, I feel like I've been marked for life from misunderstanding American during that meeting Okay, you eat the bacon, you know, I can't I'm allergic. I'm out. We say this when we no longer want to participate in something Allergic unable to eat something because it causes a negative reaction in your body. We can also say to have an allergy Example I have an allergy to shellfish. Your bacon allergy is a lie your mother made up So you'd eat healthy as a kid make up something. We haven't invented or fabricated an example I made up an excuse for why I was late. No, I'm just allergic to a lot of stuff bacon doughnuts Halloween candy Doughnut cake made from sweet dough that has been shaped in a ring and cooked in hot fat Halloween candy During the holiday of Halloween meaning I States children dress up in costumes and go to the houses in their neighborhood and ask for candy Children need many sweets during this holiday. I don't even know if I'll like bacon. I'll like thank you. I Don't even know if I'll like bacon How could you mom how could you used to ask someone about something disappointing they did to you Example you watch Game of Thrones without me. How could you think crisp it up real nice here. Don't they? Crisp it up. Most people believe bacon tastes best when it is cooked until it is crispy that is slightly hard when you bite it Marshall invented a phrasal verb to say it that they make the bacon good and crispy at this hotel You know what you've been doing at it real hard Going at it real hard. Take it easy To go at something really hard is to do it in an intense way on the other hand to take it easy means to relax Example you've been going at it hard with your training you better take it easy and rest before starting to exercise again Why don't you take a breather and I'll Drive us home? Take a breath to take a short period of time to rest and regain energy we can also use the term for either Example guys, I'm exhausted. I need a breather before we continue the game. I'll Drive us home Here Marshall does not mean to literally drive them home, but rather to finish the task Example if you can get dinner started by chopping everything then I'll Drive us home by cooking it up Her name is bacon, you know, just great. I wear my mom's LT sandwiches. This would go great on one of my mom's LT sandwiches This refers to a famous sandwich in the USA called a BLT which stands for bacon lettuce and tomato The joke here. Is that because Ted's mom told him that he was allergic to bacon She just made him lettuce and tomato sandwiches, which we can imagine would be rather bland without the bacon Lifetime the length of time that someone is live At the farhampton Inn, we don't cook with grease our menu is organic farm-to-table locally grown no grease Sir, I am from Minnesota where every meal is cooked with grease and my father dealt with that food the tastiest eats in the whole Gosh-darn world, so and how would your father's help?
