Living On Your Own, Friday, Period 1

[tyler_back]

Tyler was not wearing his pink, frilly apron today. He took class much more seriously.

Instead, it was one with a tuxedo printHe seemed in high spirits as he waited for the students to gather, and if his movements were a little stiff, you'd have to know him well to notice. The bruise on his cheek, though -- that was a little harder to miss

Meg's Demonstration [8/01]

[tyler_back]

For the lovely TA.

Meg was looking bouncy and cheerful as always.

"Okay, so I'll be showing you guys how to make brownies. I prefer homemade ones rather than the stuff that comes out of a box but we don't always have the time or the money to make the good stuff. There is one rule for those of you new to baking, whether you're making homemade brownies or boxed brownies: Follow the directions. Follow them exactly. You have to know make good plain brownies before experimenting with different ingredients," Meg said. She paused and hoped that didn't sound like she was talking about weed. "Anyways. As long as you follow the directions you should be fine."

Meg spent the next couple minutes mixing together the ingredients for a regular set of brownies, telling everyone what she was adding as she went on. Then she poured the batter in a pan and stuck it in the oven.

"You stick them in a 350 degree oven for about forty-five minutes. You know they're done when you stick a toothpick in the center and it comes out clean. Pretty simple."

General Class Stuff [8/01]

Listen, watch the demonstrations, take notes, or wonder where the teacher gets such fetching aprons.

This class couldn't have come at a better time considering the brownie incident of last week.

That's why Gavin was paying CLOSE attention.

Mmm, chili. Having skipped out on breakfast, Amber was hungry.

So there had been brownies the other night after escaping the painting, but so what? There could be more. Katchoo was kind of freaked by how cheerful Meg was, though. How could anybody be that cheerful all the time? It had to be an act. And yet, she wasn't really convinced it was, which was kind of unsettling.

Cook! [8/01]

[tyler_back]

Work alone or in pairs. Make chili, brownies, or some bizarre but possibly awesome hybrid.

Re: Cook! [8/01]

Gavin found his way over and started sifting through ingredients. He thought of going with chili but he'd ruined brownies once so he chose those and started reading the ingredients and getting the prep together.

Re: Cook! [8/01]

[minnesota_teen]

Ooh, she was starting on the chili. Definitely.

Sam felt a lot more comfortable near the oven than he would have a year ago, but he still put a lot of effort into making sure everything went into the chili in the right size and right order.

Talk to Tyler [8/01]

[tyler_back]

He is around after class.

Her first two years of high school, Katchoo would never have bothered to apologize for her absence from class; that would have been the majority of the school year spent apologizing. She'd promised Emma she'd try and make a clean start, though, so here she was, hands shoved in her pockets and her gaze fixed firmly on some spot just past Tyler's shoulder, about to make a sincere excuse for something she'd never thought she'd ever have to say.

"Hi."

Well, it was a start.

Re: Talk to Tyler [8/01]

[tyler_back]

He raised an eyebrow. "Hi back."

Had she been in class the week before? He didn't think so, but he wasn't certain.

Re: Talk to Tyler [8/01]

"I'm not on drugs, I swear," Katchoo said, the abruptness of the disclaimer belying the nonchalant tone. "I got turned into a painting last week, 's why I wasn't here."
