{Memento} A Fading Year

[fluorite_flux]

My goodness! Some tremendous orange gourds were delivered in the kitchen shipment today! They look a little bit like gia*, but the crates said they were "pumpkins!" There are dozens of recipes that use them, especially in my holiday cookbook: soups, muffins, loaves, cakes, pie; the seeds can even be cleaned and salted and baked as a snack. A

Carving faces and deserts? That sounds like fun.
I'm not so sure if I'm good when it comes to kitchen work, but if it's okay with you Fai-san, I'd like to help out. ^-^

[fluorite_flux]

Please do come down! This is shaping up to be quite a gathering! XD And carving pumpkins shouldn't be too hard at all, so no worries! If there's any kitchen things you ever need help with in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me ^.^

[y0ru_n0_uta]

Okay, I'll try my best then. It'll be so much fun with others around. I just hope you aren't too overloaded with people that It'll be troublesome for you Fai-san...^_^;;
Thank you so much! I will ^-^

[fluorite_flux]

Ahaha, it's never too much trouble! I love large gatherings ^___^ That's why I love so much traffic to the kitchens!

[mokomanjuu]

It sounds like so much fun~&hearts Mokona wants to help out, too~!

Fai-mommy is sounding much more honestly cheerful! &hearts Who was it that saved him?

[fluorite_flux]

I know Mokona would be a MASTER at making art on pumpkins, yes? ^.^ You can especially help me with mine if you like!

Ahaha, I do feel much better ^.^ And my heroes were Kuro-pon and Sora! XDDDD They came up with the solution to the problem.

[mokomanjuu]

:DD So Kuro-daddy is both clever and brave! Mokona will make a big, fierce Kuro-pumpkin in his honor, with a smiling Sora-face on the other side!

[fluorite_flux]

That's a fantastic idea, Mokona! *looking like he can barely contain his laughter* Let's do just that! I'm sure they'd be very impressed! XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[sexybathqueen]

Ara? *blinks* What's a 'pumpkin'?

[fluorite_flux]

It's a greaaaat, huge squash *makes a circle with his arms* that's bright orange. Its insides are pulpy and filled with seeds. They apparently grow on a vine on the ground. They're good with spices and butter and salt, according to my recipes XD Want to see them?

[sexybathqueen]

Certainly! <3 Pulp? Is it squishy? I could put some down Sasuke's shirt!

[fluorite_flux]

Come down to the kitchens and I'll get the crates opened! ^___^

And yes, it's VERY squishy! XD Ahaha, the thought HAD occurred to me XDDDDDDD

[karatebunny]

I want to crave a pumpkin too~! ♥

[fluorite_flux]

Of course Mitsukuni! ^___^ When we get started, do you want a small, cute one or a big one? XD

[karatebunny]

Mmmm.... a small, cute one~! Like me~! ♥ ♥ Ne, I'm glad that you're feeling all better now, Mummy~! *hugs*

[da_transporter]

Be careful. Don't cut yourself.

[kaikishyoku]

Still playing matchmaker, I see. -smirks a little. witnessed Fai's conversation with Syaoran.-

Now all Sora's babbling about is carving pumpkins. I'm guessing that's your doing, as well?

[fluorite_flux]

Why, I haven't the slightest clue what you could be referring to ^____^

Ahaha, now THAT I will take the blame for. You'll be joining us I hope?

[kaikishyoku]

Right.

Yeah, I don't think I have much of a choice. Sora will drag me down there either way. -actually doesn't mind carving a pumpkin, though.-

You gonna carve one with Kurogane? -asks innocently.-

[fluorite_flux]

Hmm, I'll have to see about Kuro-pin joining us, but I believe Mokona will be helping me with mine ^.^
