What are Marc, Oliver, Olivia, and Noah talking about:

Marc: It's sure round!
Oliver: If it's not round I will eat my shoe!
Olivia: Well, that's one opinion. It's sure gleaming off that nice bright light of hers!
Noah: Like it do we? Well we should go and take a closer look with our glassy friend!
Olivia: It's going to enlarge her a lot, you know.
Marc: Well, I'm freezing. Maybe we should go in and eat our food? Remember, we only eat it once a year!
Oliver: Oh that. I'm sure it's disgusting!
Olivia: Go try it out. It's really yummy with the fills! Add the egg on top, homemade, round, just like it!
Noah: Well, what are we waiting for! Happy ______________
