Home Ec, Tuesday, Period 1
The classroom had no cats today, nor balls of yarn. Instead, there was rather a lot of bread and cheese. And chocolate. And fruits and cakes and marshmallows.
And tiny pots with their own burners and almost absurdly long forks.
"Right, so. Continuin' on the theme of 'whoever wrote this curiculum thinks it's about 1965', today we're doin' fondue. It's kind of a fancy party dish that ain't unthematic to today's holiday, but unless you wanna make a crapton of chocolate covered strawberries to bring back to you room with you, it doesn't travel super well. So uh. Hope no one ate a big breakfast." He shrugged. "I got a whole bunch of recipes for y'all to follow -- take your time on these, you'll have plenty while things are meltin' and heating up, so even you guys who ain't great at reading should do okay. If you've got questions or you need help with a term or two, let me know, yeah? And uh." He looked around for a familiar tiny green shape. "Peridot, feel free to see this as an experiment in the melting point and properties of different earth foods or somethin'." Phase changes were sciencey, right?
"Anyway, go on and get crackin'. And try not to set anything on fire that ain't in a recipe."
