Fifth Floor Common Room, Monday Evening

[not_in_the_book]

"Can you hand me the ginger?" Ronan asked, as he ground some spices with a mortar and pestle. "The fresh, I mean." The fragrant smells of cooking curry were already pervading the common room, and probably making their way through the rest of the dorms. When Isabel handed over the asked-for ginger, he added some to the mixture in the mortar, and went back to grinding. "Thanks. I hope this isn't too spicy for whoever else comes along," he added.


[OOC: Open, as common rooms are! Come have some curry. :D]

"Stupid-easy? Like from a can?" Charlie asked, taking a moment for the 'hot hot hot' dance again before digging back in. "Or is this another recipe?"

"From scratch, but it's more a method," Jenny said. "A stupid easy method. Ronan taught me, actually."

"Cool! And thus proving how he's got magical cooking powers," Charlie pointed out with a grin. "But yay on the tea thing?"

[ashockingbitch]

"Well," Jenny said. "I'm English. Tea is necessary for continued life."

Charlie snickered. "So you'll never die if you're stuck on a desert island. Now if you knew how to make chocolate, you'd be able to survive *and* be happy."

"Alas," Jenny said. "Making chocolate requires skills. Maybe I'll get stuck on an island with cacao trees. Bushes. Whatever it grows on."

"I think it's trees. But maybe that's cocaine? And now I'm imagining a totally different kind of castaway experience."

[ashockingbitch]

"Hm," Jenny said thoughtfully. "All in all, I'd rather have chocolate, actually."

"Me too. That would be a good way to have only a very short three-day trip."
