Helping Out Chef Strawberry

Everyone in Berry Bitty City is responsible for their own business. Ballerina Plum is the town’s dance instructor, Smart Blueberry runs her own bookstore, Lemonpunzel is in charge of her trendy hair and nail salon, and even Popstar Cherry is Berry Bitty City’s music teacher along with Ribbon Princess Peach. Over at the Berry Bitty Cafe, Chef Strawberry is hard at work in the kitchen making to-go meals for deliveries to customers in other towns nearby. She stirs in pots and mixes in bowls while talking on her cellphone.

Chef Strawberry: “Okay. So that’s two boomberry pies, four corn muffins, and one pineapple sideways cake. I’ll have it baked and delivered this afternoon. Thank you, and have a berry nice day.” \*hangs up\* “Phew. This has to be the berry busiest delivery day I’ve ever had.”

As Chef Strawberry continues cooking, Mario and Luigi walk in the cafe With Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach.

Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach: \*smiles\* “Hi Strawberry.”

Chef Strawberry: \*smiles\* “Hi Popstar Cherry Jam. Hi Ribbon Princess Peach. How are you two?”

Spring Mario: “We’re doing good.”

Popstar Cherry and Ribbon Princess Peach: \*looks around\* “Wow Chef Strawberry. You have so many pots and pans here.”

Chef Strawberry: \*stirring a bowl\* “Yeah. I’m berry berry busy right now. Is there something I can do for you two?”

Spring Mario: “Well, you could let us help you out.”

Chef Strawberry: “It’s okay Spring Mario. I can do this on my own.”

Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach: “Please Chef Strawberry? We can help you get the orders ready.”

Chef Strawberry: “I’m fine Popstar Cherry and Ribbon Princess Peach, but thank you for the offer.” \*cellphone rings\* “Oh. Hold on.” \*answers\* “Hello. Chef Strawberry’s cafe. Hope you’re having a berry nice day. Chef Strawberry speaking… Uh-huh… Alright. So one Nana Num-Num… Okay. I’ll deliver it soon. Thank you.” \*hangs up\* “Sorry girls. I have too much to do.”

Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach: \*frowns\* “Are you sure we can’t help you cook Chef Strawberry?”

Spring Mario: “Or make deliveries?”

Chef Strawberry: \*puts food in the oven\* “I’m sorry girls, but I’m too busy right now and I don’t have enough time. I need to get going.”

Spring Mario: \*frowns\* “Alright Chef Strawberry. Let us know if you need help.”

Spring Mario & NinjLuigri and Popstar Cherry and Ribbon Princess Peach leave the cafe as Chef Strawberry continues cooking for about two more hours. Finally, her delivery wagon is fully-loaded with the food boxes and Chef Strawberry hooks up her berry scooter to the wagon. She puts her helmet on and starts to ride down the road. For the next four hours, Chef Strawberry rides all around the Berrygrove, delivering boxes of baked goods to customers. Along the way, Chef Strawberry’s scooter suddenly gets a flat tire and Chef Strawberry is forced to pull over to the side of the road.

Chef Strawberry: \*frowns\* “Aw muffin crumbs. I have a flat tire.”

Luckily for Chef Strawberry, her berry scooter has a spare tire. Chef Strawberry gets to work changing the flat tire. Thirty minutes later, Strawberry finishes fixing the flat tire and gets back on the scooter. Her face and hands have a few grease spots and Chef Strawberry does her best to clean herself up.

Chef Strawberry: “I’ll have to clean up later. I’m already running berry late.”

Chef Strawberry hurries as fast as she can down the road to catch up on the deliveries. Sadly for her, the rest of the deliveries are very late and some of the customers are a little upset. At the end of the day, Chef Strawberry arrives back at the cafe and trudges inside. The poor girl is really exhausted and tired from a very hard day of work. Her Ankle hair is a tangled mess with food stains in it, her body is sweaty from running around, and she’s covered with grease spots and dirt from changing the flat tire on her scooter. Chef Strawberry notices the disaster of a kitchen with messy pots, pans, and bowls scattered everywhere, and bits of unmade food staining the floor, counters, and walls.

Chef Strawberry: \*moans\* “Well, I guess it’s time to clean up for tomorrow.”

Trudging over to the kitchen, Chef Strawberry grabs the mop and starts cleaning up the kitchen. Bit by bit, Chef Strawberry slowly cleans the kitchen. She mops the floor, wipes the counters, and washes all of the pots, pans, and bowls in the sink. As nighttime falls, Chef Strawberry finishes drying the last pan with a dish towel and hangs up her apron.

Chef Strawberry: \*looks at the time and yawns\* “Gasping gooseberries. It’s berry berry late. I’d better get to bed.”

Chef Strawberry trudges her aching body out of the cafe and up to her bedroom above the Marketplace. Minutes later, Spring Mario arrives back at the cafe from a last-minute mail delivery and goes inside. he locks the door, turns off the lights, and walks upstairs to his bedroom, which is Chef Strawberry’s old bedroom. Spring Mario gets in his pjs and crawls into bed with his puppy Oreo. Oreo licks Spring Mario’s cheek and Spring Mario pets his cute puppy.

Spring Mario: \*smiles\* “Hehe. You cutie puppy.” \*kisses Oreo’s head and looks out the window\* “I sure hope Strawberry will be okay tomorrow. She was so busy today.”

Spring Mario soon lets out a big yawn and falls asleep with his puppy for the night. The next day, Spring Mario wakes up to the sound of something crashing downstairs.

Spring Mario: \*wakes up\* “Huh? What was-a that?”

Spring Mario gets dressed in his usual clothes and goes downstairs. he gasps in shock at the sight of Chef Strawberry Shortcake busily working in the kitchen again. She’s cooking and baking lots and lots of food not only for the customers in the cafe, but also for the customers ordering meals on the phone.

Chef Strawberry: \*flipping pancakes\* “Yes sir. Three rainbow shakes, a dozen muffins, and a quart of chamomile tea. I’ll have it delivered soon. Okay. Bye.” \*presses a button\* “Strawberry’s cafe. Hope you’re having a berry nice day… Okay ma’am. Two dozen sandwiches, two gallons of lemonade, and five cherry turnovers for a lunch party later today… I’ll be there as soon as possible.” \*hangs up\* “Okay. Who had three plates of pancakes?”

Three Berrykins raise their hands and Chef Strawberry serves them their breakfast. Spring Mario watches in horror as Chef Strawberry constantly cooks breakfast and delivery meals at the same time.

Spring Mario: \*frowns\* “Chef Strawberry? Do you need help?”

Chef Strawberry: \*shakes her head\* “No no. It’s okay Spring Mario. I got this under control.” \*flips some pancakes\* “Everything’s all good.

Chef Strawberry flips a pancake into the air, but she isn’t paying attention and the pancake lands right on her head. Spring Mario walks over to Chef Strawberry and takes the pancake off her head.

Spring Mario: \*frowns\* “Chef Strawberry. Please. Let me help you. You’re doing too much on you’re own.”

Chef Strawberry: “I’m okay Mario. I’m just busy is all.”

Spring Mario: “Chef Strawberry. Why won’t you let me help you? You taught me how to cook most of your meals.”

Chef Strawberry: “I just… I just have to get through this day and everything will be fine.”

Before Spring Mario can say another word, Chef Strawberry goes back to cooking both breakfast and delivery food for the customers. Later in the day, Spring Mario is over at Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peaach’s tour bus having a saxophone lesson.

Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach: \*smiles\* “Great job Spring Mario. You’re really mastering that saxophone.”

Spring Mario: \*frowns\* “Thanks.”

Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach: \*frowns\* “Is something wrong Mario? You don’t sound like yourself.”

Spring Mario: \*sighs\* “I’m-a worried about Chef Strawberry. She’s been so busy cooking food for both her deliveries and the customers at the cafe, I’m afraid that she’s doing too much on her own.”

Popatar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach: “we know how you feel. we saw her at lunch about an hour ago and she was literally running around the kitchen. we think we saw her cellphone taped to her ear.”

Spring Mario: “Taped to his ear?” \*stands up\* “Okay. This has gone on long enough.”

Popstar Cherry and Ribbon Princess Peach: “What do you mean?”

Spring Mario: “I mean Chef Strawberry has pushed herself too far. I’m afraid she’s going to hurt herself really bad.”

Spring Mario walks away from Popstar Cherry Jam & Ribbon Princess Peach and goes back to the cafe. When he enters, Mario sees Chef Strawberry washing dishes in the sink.

Spring Mario: “Chef Strawberry?”

Chef Strawberry turns around and Spring Mario gasps in shock. Chef Strawberry looks horrible with messy ankle Length hair, stained clothes, and a exhausted look on her face.

Spring Mario: “Chef Strawberry? What happened to you?”

Chef Strawberry: “Oh. I was just cooking Mario. It’s okay.”

Spring Mario: “Chef Strawberry. I’m getting worried about you. I think you need to take a break and rest.”

Chef Strawberry: “I wish I could Mario, but I have deliveries to make.”

Spring Mario: “Then let me deliver them for you. I know the way to the other towns.”

Chef Strawberry: “It’s okay Mario. I’ll be fine. You should get ready for your mail route.”

Spring Mario: “I’ll make the deliveries during my mail route.”

Chef Strawberry: “Spring Mario. I don’t want you to be late with the mail. I need to go now.”

Chef Strawberry finishes drying the last bowl and grabs her helmet. She walks outside and hooks up her delivery wagon to the back of her berry scooter and rides away from the cafe.

Spring Mario: \*sighs and shakes his head\* “Oh Strawberry. I wish you would let us help you.”

Spring Mario walks out of the cafe and rollerblades down to the Orange Mart to pick up his mail. Later that night, Mario is gently brushing Chef Strawberry’s cat, Custard. Custard purrs happily as she has her fur brushed.

Spring Mario: \*smiles\* “Awww. Yes. You like your fur brushed. Don’t you Custard? Yes you do.”

The front door opens and an exhausted Chef Strawberry Shortcake trudges inside.

Chef Strawberry: \*yawns\* “Hi Spring Mario What are you doing here this late?”

Spring Mario: “I was waiting for you to come back from your deliveries. How come you’re so late?”

Chef Strawberry: “One of the wheels on my wagon broke off, so I had to stop and fix it, which really put me behind schedule. Then I hit a pothole and a few baked goods fell on the ground and got ruined.”

Spring Mario: “Chef Strawberry. Maybe you should take the day off tomorrow. You look really tired and exhausted.”

Chef Strawberry: “I’m can’t. Tomorrow I have to deliver food for a kids birthday party in Acorn Acres.”

Spring Mario: “Chef Strawberry. I can help you make the food for that party. That’s too big to handle on your own.”

Chef Strawberry: “I’ve cooked for parties before Mario. I can do it. It’s no big deal.”

Spring Mario: “Chef Strawberry. Please. You’re working way too hard. I’m worried about you.”

Chef Strawberry: “I said I’m okay Mario. It’s just a really busy time for me.” \*yawns\* “Anyway. I’m going to bed. Good night.”

Chef Strawberry walks out of the cafe and her two pets, Pupcake and Custard, follow behind her. Mario watches Chef Strawberry slowly walk to the Marketplace and she goes up the flower elevator to her bedroom. Mario sighs and locks up the cafe before going upstairs to his bedroom. The next day, Mario finishes up delivering the mail and meets with the rest of the girls at the gazebo.

Spring Mario: “Girls. I’m sure all of you know why I wanted to meet together.”

Store Clerk Orange Blossom: “This is about Chef Strawberry isn’t it?”

Spring Mario: \*nods\* “I’m worried that something bad will happen to her because she’s doing all of this work by herself. I’ve been asking her to let me help, but she keeps saying that she has it under control.”

Lemonpunzel: I'm worried too. She hasn’t come in for a hair appointment since two weeks ago.”

Fasionable Raspberry: “And I have a dress that she’s supposed to try on, but she hasn’t shown up at the boutique.”

Ballerina Plum: “What are we going to do about her?”

Spring Mario: “I think the only way to help Chef Strawberry now is to make her take a break.”

Smart Blueberry: “But she won’t take a break. She keeps saying she’s too busy cooking.”

Spring Mario: “Which is why we need to make her take a break, wether she likes it or not.”

Store Clerk Orange Blossom: “That sounds a little mean Mario.”

Spring Mario: “Well, what else can we do?”

Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach: “Maybe we can all talk to Chef Strawberry together. As a group.”

Smart Blueberry: “Yeah. Maybe with all of us, she’ll probably listen.”

Spring Mario: \*sighs\* “Alright. I’m just really worried about her though. She taught me how to be nice and I really appreciate her for that.”

Popstar Cherry jam and Ribbon Princess Peach: \*puts their hands on Mario’s shoulder\* “We understand Mario. We’re worried about Chef Strawberry too.”

Spring Mario and the girls leave the gazebo and walk over to Chef Strawberry’s cafe. When they walk inside, all of the girls with Spring Mario gasp in shock. The kitchen is a huge mess with food splattered everywhere, messy pots and pans and bowls, and there’s a bad smell of burning food from the oven with the sight of black smoke. The girls look and see a messy and exhausted Chef Strawberry Shortcake running around and talking on her cellphone while trying to cook at the same time.

Chef Strawberry: “Yes ma’am. I’m making the food for your son’s birthday party right now as we speak… Yes I understand that it’s this afternoon, but I’m working as fast as I can… Okay okay. I’ll see you later.” \*hits a button\* “Hello?… Okay, that’s 10 cherry turnovers, 15 cranberry cookies, and two mucho mocha mango mousses. I’ll have those ready soon.”

Chef Strawberry runs around mixing ingredients in bowls and putting pans in the oven. Her clothes are covered all over with food splatters, her hair is tangled and messy, and her body is a little dirty from not showering for three days.

Spring Mario: \*shocked\* “Chef Strawberry?”

Chef Strawberry: \*looks at the girls\* “Sorry girls. I’m berry berry berry busy right now.” \*talks on her cellphone\* “Sorry sir, I accidentally messed up your order. I’ll remake your mulberry pie again and have it delivered as soon as possible.”

Popstar Cherry and Ribbon Princess Peach: “Chef Strawberry. There’s something we need to tell you and it’s really important.”

Chef Strawberry: \*ignores Cherry and Princess Peach\* “Okay. So one Chef Strawberry’s fabulous fig frappé, three pineapple sideways cakes, and a great grape grandy. Coming right up sir.”

As Chef Strawberry cooks, her exhausted body gets worse and worse. She can barely keep her eyes open, her speed is starting to slow down, and her vision is starting to go blurry from barely having anything to eat and drink for a few days. The girls try to talk to Chef Strawberry, but due to constantly being on the phone, Chef Strawberry doesn’t listen to her friends. Slowly, Chef Strawberry starts getting more and more weak from not having enough energy and over-working. Her vision gets more blurry and she starts wobbling.

Chef Strawberry: “Yes sir… I’ll have your gooseberry… have your goose… berry.”

Suddenly, Chef Strawberry collapses on the ground and passes out on the floor. A bowl of mixture that she was holding falls and breaks, spilling the mixture on the floor.

Girls and Mario Gang: \*shocked\* “CHEF STRAWBERRY!”

All of the girls run over to their unconscious friend and Spring Mario gently shakes Chef Strawberry, trying to wake her up.

Spring Mario: \*worried\* “Chef Strawberry? Chef Strawberry? Please wake up! Chef Strawberry!” \*looks up at the girls\* “Someone call an ambulance! Hurry!”

Smart Blueberry and Ballerina Plum pull out their cellphones and call the paramedics. About 7 minutes later, an ambulance comes and the paramedics put Strawberry on a gurney and push her into the back of the ambulance. Spring Mario jumps in with the paramedics as the ambulance speeds away from the cafe. The rest of the girls watch in worry as Chef Strawberry is rushed to the hospital. 8 hours later, Chef Strawberry regains consciousness and slowly opens her eyes. Her vision soon returns to normal as she slowly turns her head to look around.

Chef Strawberry: \*really weak\* “Huh? Wha?”

Dr. NinLuigri: \*smiles softly\* “Hi Chef Strawberry. Glad to see you’re awake. How do you feel?”

Chef Strawberry: “I feel really dizzy and weak. Like I have no energy.”

Dr. NinLuigri: “You should be since you’ve barely eaten any food for a few days and are badly dehydrated.”

Chef Strawberry: “I was dehydrated?”

Dr. NinLuigri: \*nods\* “That’s why you have that water bag next to you. It’s feeding water into your body to help rehydrate you.”

Chef Strawberry looks to her left and sees the water bag and the hose feeding water into her body.

Chef Strawberry: “Oh. Dr. Luigi? What time is it?”

Dr. NinLuigri: “It’s almost midnight. You were passed out for 8 hours.”

Chef Strawberry: “8 hours?”

Dr. NinjLuigri: “Yep. Two of your friends called an ambulance at around 4:00pm the second you passed out. One of them rode in the ambulance with you.”

Chef Strawberry: “Who?”

Dr. NinLuigri: “I don’t know. I never saw. I just heard this from one of the paramedics.”

Dr. NinLuigri brings over a small bowl of sliced up fruit and a small glass of water.

Dr. NinLuigri: “Here you go Chef Strawberry. I want you to eat this fruit and then rest up for the night.”

Chef Strawberry: “How long am I going to be here?”

Dr. NinLuigri: “Probably a few days, just until your energy is back to normal.”

Chef Strawberry: “Will I be able to see my friends?”

Dr. NinLuigri: \*smiles\* “Of course you can. They can visit you anytime tomorrow.”

Chef Strawberry smiles softly and eats the bowl of fruit and drinks the water. Dr. Nutby helps Strawberry lay back down on the hospital bed and puts a cozy blanket on her.

Dr. NinLuigri: \*smiles\* “Now get lots of rest Chef Strawberry. I’ll check on you tomorrow morning. And if you need anything, just hit the call button and a nurse will come in. Okay?”

Chef Strawberry: \*smiles\* “Okay. Thank you Dr. Nutby. Good night.”

Dr. NinLuigri: “Good night Chef Strawberry.”

Dr. NinLuigri turns off the lights and leaves the room. At first, Chef Strawberry has trouble falling asleep since it’s not her room, but the exhaustion soon catches up to her and she soon falls asleep. The next morning, Chef Strawberry is still peacefully asleep as her door opens. Spring Mario and the girls are all smiling and quietly tiptoe into the room, carrying balloons and colorful presents for Chef Strawberry. The girls quietly setup the balloons and sit around Chef Strawberry’s bed. Mario gently rocks Chef Strawberry to help wake her up.

Spring Mario: \*smiles and talks quietly\* “Chef Strawberry. Chef Strawberry. Time to wake up.”

Chef Strawberry slowly wakes up and opens her eyes. She sees all of her best friends smiling happily at her.

Spring Mario: \*smiles\* “Good morning sleepyhead.”

Chef Strawberry: \*smiles softly\* “Hehe. Morning Mario.” \*looks at the girls\* “Morning girls.”

Girls and Mario Gang: \*smiles\* “Morning Strawberry.”

Spring Mario: “How are you feeling?”

Chef Strawberry: “Still feeling weak, but it’s less than yesterday.”

Lemonpunzel: \*smiles\* “That’s great.”

Popstar Cherry and Ribbon Princess Peach: \*smiles\* “Oh. We got you a few gifts to help you feel better.”

Chef Strawberry: \*smiles\* “Awwww girls. You didn’t have to do that for me.”

Smart Blueberry: \*gives Strawberry her present\* “This is from me.”

Chef Strawberry: \*opens the present\* “Oh wow. Activity books.”

Smart Blueberry: \*smiles\* “Just in case you get bored. You have something to do.”

Ballerina Plum: \*smiles and gives Strawberry her present\* “Here you go.”

Chef Strawberry: \*opens the present\* “A little stereo and my bPod.”

Ballerina Plum: “For listening to your favorite songs” inclued a ARMS soundtrack.

Spring Man: yeah and you can watch me fight in the grand prix

Chef Strawberry: Really

Spring Man: of course

Lemonpunzel: \*smiles\* “my turn.” \*gives Strawberry her present\*

Chef Strawberry: \*opens the present\* Awwwww. It’s a little stuffed animal bunny.

Lemonpunzel: \*smiles\* “And she’s dressed like a doctor too.”

Poppy: we love to help you Chef Strawberry

Chef Strawberry opens up each present from her best friends & Spring Mario With The Bean Team and smiles happily. Fashionable Raspberry gives a special heart-shaped pillow that she made herself. Store Clerk Orange Blossom gives a cozy blanket for Chef Strawberry to keep warm in. Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach gives Chef Strawberry their present and Chef Strawberry opens it, having Pupcake and Custard surprise her by jumping out of the box and licking her cheeks.

Chef Strawberry: \*smiles and giggles\* “Hehehehe. Pupcake. Custard. That tickles. Hehehe.”

Chef Strawberry cuddles her two pets as Spring Mario gives his present. Chef Strawberry opens it and it’s a framed picture of her all of the girls and The Mario Gang smiling

Chef Strawberry: \*smiles\* “Awwwww. Thank you Spring Mario. I love it.”

Spring Mario: \*smiles\* “So you’re never alone. And we’ll try to visit you as much as possible.”

Chef Strawberry: \*hugs her Husband Spring Mario\* “Thank you Mario.” \*hugs the girls\* “And thank you everyone. These are berry great gifts.”

Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach: \*smiles\* “Oh. We have one more surprise for you Strawberry.”

Chef Strawberry: “What’s that?”

Smart Blueberry: \*smiles\* “Well, Dr. Luigi said that you need to eat some food to regain your energy. So…”

Spring Mario: \*smiles and holds up a breakfast tray\* “Ta-da.”

Chef Strawberry is surprised when Mario holds up a breakfast tray that has warm waffles with syrup on them, a bowl of sliced fruit, and a glass of strawberry juice to drink.

Chef Strawberry: \*smiles\* “Mmmmm. That looks berry delicious.”

Ballerina Plum: \*smiles\* “We all made it for you Chef Strawberry.”

Spring Mario gently sets the breakfast tray down on Chef Strawberry’s lap and Chef Strawberry starts to eat. As she eats, she smiles happily and fills her tummy up with the delicious food.

Chef Strawberry: \*smiles\* “Mmmmmmmm. That was a berry yummy breakfast girls. Thank you berry much.”

Girls and Spring Mario Gang: \*smiles\* “You’re welcome Chef Strawberry.”

Over the next few hours, Chef Strawberry and the girls inclued The Mario Gang all chat and spend time together in the hospital room. After eating a lunch sent in by one of the nurses, Chef Strawberry yawns and starts feeling tired again.

Spring Mario: \*smiles\* “You getting sleepy Chef Strawberry?”

Chef Strawberry: \*smiles and nods\* “Yeah. I’m getting a little sleepy.”

Popstar Cherry Jam and Ribbon Princess Peach: “You want to take a nap? We can come back later.”

Chef Strawberry: “You know. Dr. Luigi said I need to rest up a lot. I could use a nap now.”

Spring Mario: \*nods\* “Alright. We’ll let you get some sleep.”

The girls help Chef Strawberry lay down on the hospital bed and also help make her cozy and comfortable. Chef Strawberry snuggles under Store Clerk Orange’s blanket, lays her head on Fasionable Raspberry’s pillow, and cuddles Lemonpunzel’s stuffed animal. Ballerina Plum plugs in the mini stereo and puts on a relaxing song for Chef Strawberry.

Chef Strawberry: \*yawns and smiles\* “See you later girls. Thank you for visiting me.”

Girls and Spring Mario Gang and The Bean Team: \*smiles\* “Sweet dreams Chef Strawberry.”

The girls and Spring Mario Gang With Bean Team quietly leave the room and Chef Strawberry peacefully falls asleep with her two pets, Custard and Pupcake. As she sleeps, Dr. Luigi comes in the room a few times to check on the sleeping girl and see how she’s doing. Later that night, Chef Strawberry is awake again and the girls along with The Mario Gang are back in her room for their second visit of the day.

Chef Strawberry: “Hey girls and The Bean Team. Um… I just wanted to say I’m berry sorry for not asking you all for help. I just didn’t want to bother all of you with your own businesses.”

Spring Mario: \*smiles\* “It’s okay Chef Strawberry. We’ll always have time to help you.”

Lemonpunzel: \*smiles\* “Yeah. You’re our best friend Chef Strawberry. We love to give you a helping hand.”

Smart Blueberry: \*smiles\* “After all, you always give us a helping hand when we need it.”

Chef Strawberry: \*smiles and blushes\* “Awwww. Thank you girls and Team Mario.”
