A/N: Hiya everybody! This is the start of a new series we're going to do. It's just going to be snippets of conversation that we don't have homes for. They'll be short and snappy, and mostly likely in script(ish) form. You may see them again in longer form if/when we find homes for them but until then... Hopefully, you'll enjoy them as much as we do coming up with them. Let us know what you think!
~A.J.
XOXOXO

Red: Ha! You girls don't know hard work. When I was a girl, back in Russia, we started learning how to run a home right from the start. Cleaning, mending our own clothes, cooking, gardening… We did everything.
Lorna: Oh my gosh, just like Fiddler on Top of the House.
Nicky: Fiddler on the Roof.
Lorna: *ignores Nicky* Did you have a Yenta too, Red? And a drunk beggar and a Rabbi?
Nicky: *rolls eyes* She was the Yenta.
Lorna: Was your father the milkman?
Nicky: Her sons' father was the milkman. *elbows Red teasingly*
Lorna: Did you arrange the marriages? Oh my gosh-when they all had to leave their homes-is that why you had to leave Russia? Did you live near Annie-tech-a?
Red: Yes. Picture it, the turn of the century… my family, practicing Jews, were driven from our home with nothing but the clothes on our backs and our arranged marriages. *glares*
Nicky: Aw come on, she's moved past West Side Story. Let's take what we can get Babushka.
Red: Are you calling me old?
Nicky: *wraps an arm around Red's shoulders* Think of it as a badge of honor. You're the only supercentenarian I've ever met.
