[There's a smudge of something across the bridge of Xion's nose;　it looks like it's batter or cookie dough or something. She has her sleeves rolled up, her hair is pulled back from her face in two very tiny pigtails and her cheeks are flushed. Behind her there's all sorts of cooking detritus in the confined space of the apartment kitchen, including

Yeah this post has his name on it

Well, personally I like to step outside the box a little. I'm experienced with soufflé of any variety, crème brûlée, dessert mousse, tarte tatin... Are you considering simply baking, or do you have a meal in mind?

Awesomesauce~

This is the first time I really tried it, so I just thought I'd go through the book and try things that didn't look too difficult. Are those things easy to make?

[showbizpanache]

...No. You should probably start with cupcakes.

They're next on my list, I already made peanut butter cookies and a cake.

Breads, coffee cakes. I like to make ones with jams in them.

[mirroredmemory]

Which jam do you like best?

[makes_asteroids]

Berries. Cherries and blueberries mostly, but berries in general.

[mirroredmemory]

I'll have to get some next time it's my turn to get the groceries; there's a lot of recipes in here that use jam.

Oh great, you're making food, Xion?

How about- um. Cinnamon rolls!

[mirroredmemory]

[Don't mind her, Joe, she's just thumbing through her 'Beginner's Guide to Baking' book and...]

Great, there's a recipe for them in here too. Where do we keep the cinnamon?

[madeinoblivion]

With the other ice-cream flavoring stuff- is there enough left?

[mirroredmemory]

I don't know... let me just check-

[And she's off on a rummage through the cupboards and then-]

Oh shoot, we're almost out.

Shortcake, pumpkin pie, black forest torte. Just to name a few.

[mirroredmemory]

Those sound great, are they easy to make?

[brbomnomsouls]

The black forest torte can be a bit complicated but once you've made it a couple of times it'll be easy. Fresh pastry's better for pumpkin pie but you can use puff pastry just as easily. I can give you the recipes if you want.

Really? That'd be great, thank you!

That looks really good, Xion. [Or something.]

You think so? I made cookies too, they should be done in about ten minutes. I hope you're hungry, there's a lot of them!

[pullsheavendown]

I am, but we should have real dinner, too.

[mirroredmemory]

That's OK, we can have the cookies for dessert. That is... if there are any left after Joe gets done with them.
