The full plate of the delicious-smelling stew made her mouth water.  "Bread too?  Please, and thank you."  She dug into the stew right away.  It was still hot do she waved her mouth quickly with wide eyes.  Chewing more carefully, she got the bite down.  "Mmm this is might good stew.  You are a good cook." 

At the mention of her parents, she shook her head.  "My parents passed away.  That is why I traveled."  She shrugged, taking another bite, more carefully this time.
