Cooking Club [Home Ec Classroom, Thursday]
Ned was kind of glad the kids were gone before the the club's meeting. He could barely keep his two entertained so he knew he'd fail at keeping a group. And that would have been some kind of cleanup if the kids had come in and cooked.
"Welcome back," Ned said, nodding at everyone. "Hope you all made it through the weekend okay and had fun with your...sudden children. I had two and one of them thought an egg was going to eat his hand. Luckily, the egg did not and the pie was made."
Even if Chad had ended up a mess.
"Today, we're going to be doing side dishes. Now, every good main dish is only as good as it's side dishes. What would a turkey be without mashed potatoes or a plate of pasta be without some peas? A hamburger without fries? Side dishes are complimentary and they should match the main dish. Having peas with a hamburger is a bit odd. So, create side dishes. Think about what main dish they'd go with. And then, eat up!"
Ned nodded to the table full of moddable ingredients and headed to his station.
