Third Floor Common Room, Wednesday Afternoon

"Okay," Dawn said, looking at the counter. On it were several mixing bowls, eggs, flour, baking powder and soda, sugar, brown sugar, and many, many different kinds of things to get mixed into the cookies. She set the cookie sheets aside and tried to decide if she should cook the bacon while she waited for River.

"I think that's everything. Oh, wait! I forgot the blueberries. And the pepper!"

She went to get them out of the fridge and cupboard, respectively.

River soon appeared. "I brought some artificial flavourings from Serenity," she said. "They are very... artificial, but might work together with other ingredients." She placed small sealed paperbags with beef flavour, tomato flavour, green tea flavour and a couple of other options.

"Any suggestions for the first batch?"

River nodded. "Lemons and green curry?" she suggested. "Oh, and maple syrup?"

"We can change to green curry to... chicken if you prefer," River offered. "Yes, good to be back. Old friends and new friends here.

Testing!

Cookies with lemon, green curry and maple syrup.

They have an odd green colour.

John wandered into the common room, having smelt something baking. "Ladies, what's cooking?

The first batch of cookies was just finished, and River arranged them neatly on a plate. She looked up when she noticed John and beamed. "Cookies. Try them?"

"Sure!" John liked cookies and had no reason whatsoever not to trust that these cookies would taste different from other cookies. He grabbed a cookie off the plate and took a bite. His face changed as he chewed. "What's in this cookie, River?"

Sokka wandered by, grabbed a cookie, and took a bite.

Then he asked, "Are these up for grabs?"

...And THEN he actually paid attention to the warning messages his taste buds were trying to send him. "Hmm... spicy... sweet... These are GOOD!!!"

River beamed happily. "Am very pleased to hear that," she said. "Dawn and I are creating new cookie recipies."

"Oh, AWESOME!" Sokka replied. He grabbed a few more and settled down on the couch in front of the TV. "Keep 'em coming!"

Yeah. He's not going to actually help.

Karal was walking back from Molly's room when he smelled something...odd. "Hello?" he said as he poked his head into the common room. "Is there, do you need any help with anything?"

Re: Testing!

[identity profile] moonbrain-tam.livejournal.com 2007-07-11 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Looking up, River smiled happily at him. "Need help with cookie testing. Dawn and I are composing new recipies."

"All right," he said, smiling as he came inside. "And how are you today, River?"

Re: Testing!

"This is a good day," River replied, holding out the plate of cookies towards him. "And you?"

On her way back from ice cream, Isabel followed her nose into the common room. "Oh boy, what's today's special?"

Re: Testing!

"Isabel!" River smiled at her. "Dawn and I are experimenting." She pointed at the plate with the Lemon, green curry and maple syrup cookies. "Sweet and spicy!"

"Oh really? This is my day for it then," she smiled. "Let me try one."

River offered her the plate. "Have as many as you like. There's a second batch over there, and there will be pie later."

Helping, omg!

Luke had terrible cooking free food radar.

He poked his head into the common room and grinned. "Oooh! Can I help?"

Bad idea, Luke.

"Do you need me to crack eggs? I still have Gavin's textbook around somewhere."

In Luke's world, that totally made sense.
