At Bob's family gathering, the abundance of food left everyone with a fridge full of leftovers. The next day, Bob hosted a 'leftover party' where everyone brought their dishes from the night before. The laughter and chatter filled the house as they shared stories over reheated meals. It turned out to be a delightful way to not waste food and enjoy good company. Bob joked, "We should cook too much more often!"

在Bob家的聚会上，丰盛的食物让每个人都留下了满满一冰箱的剩菜。第二天，Bob举办了一个“剩菜派对”，每个人都带来了前一晚的菜肴。他们一边加热食物，一边分享故事，笑声和谈话声充满了整个房间。这变成了一个不浪费食物又能享受友好陪伴的绝妙方式。Bob开玩笑说：“我们应该更经常做太多的饭！”
