First Floor Lobby, Wednesday [All Day]

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

After a handwaved discussion with Tony, it had been decided to move the bake sale to the dorm lobby instead of the theater since someone had used all of Hoshi's poster-making supplies to decorate her dorm room with magazine pictures over the weekend.

She managed to get the tables set up without problems and started putting out the cookies she'd baked last night as well as other baked goods that had been donated.

Above the tables was a sign.

Bake Sale Today!
Support the arts and your local theater.

[Open!]

Talk to Hoshi

Ask her about the play, buy treats or drop off donations.

Andrew was in a hurry to get to work, but he had promised Tony he would make something for the bake sale. Upon seeing Hoshi, he smiled, and greeted her in a slightly archaic Urdu: "/Hello, bright spot! For you, this day, I have baked lumps of sweet grain, laced with pungent water of fowl./"

It was safe to say his Urdu was a little rusty.

Hoshi figured it might be safer to stick to English. "Thanks, Andrew! Are you working on a new language?"

Re: Talk to Hoshi

[wannabe-pan.livejournal.com]

"Not so much new," he replied, switching back to English. "But I find that if you don't use a language, you start to forget bits and pieces, you know?"

He sat down sat down the cardboard box full of pumpkin muffins. "I brought these by for your sale," he explained.

"Hey," Tony grinned. "Thanks for helping out."

"I'm a firm believer in the virtues of charity," he said. "Plus the guy who asked me to help is really kinda cute, and I'm trying to make a good impression." He grinned back.

"Everything looks good!" Tony smiled at Hoshi. "Thanks for setting this all up."

"Oh, it's no problem," said Hoshi. "Hopefully, we'll make enough to do some really nice sets in addition to costumes."

Re: Talk to Hoshi

[wantstodirect]

"It'd be nice to have a bit of a budget," Tony agreed. "If we make enough, maybe we can do some improvements to the lighting grid, too.

Cal was definitely laying low today, but he was getting stir-crazy in his room. He found this to be a rather welcome distraction, holding back his steps from continuing out the dorms and into town, where only trouble awaited him.

His head tilted. "Something tells me I need to pay more attention in discussions at the Boards," he commented when he saw what the bake sale was for. "How's it going Hoshi?"

Re: Talk to Hoshi

"I'm good," said Hoshi. "I just wish Homecoming had been longer. The part about the alumni visiting, not all the weird stuff that happened. I had a good time at the dance, but it wasn't long enough to catch up with all of my friends."

Re: Talk to Hoshi

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

"Aww," Cal gave her a faintly teasing grin. "See, I haven't got any graduated friends here, so I just wish it was longer merely because it was fun."

"Also," he added, "can I get a cookie for free since I'm supporting the play by being in it?"

Oooooh....Jack was in a donatey mood. Or at least he was hungry and he had money, so same thing. "Hey, Hoshi!"

Re: Talk to Hoshi

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Hi Jack. Are you here to buy something?" asked Hoshi.

And, out of force of habit, she double-checked to make sure Porthos wasn't around. He should have been safely napping in her dorm room.

Which was a good thing, because that dog had some sort of vendetta against John that was just unhealthy.

He grinned. "Tempted to say 'one of everything' but I don't think I could eat it all." He could. Really.

Liir came by after work with some of his favorites: stained glass cookies (http://www.elise.com/recipes/archives/006213stained_glass_cookies.php), summer ice (http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FTurkish_Delight&ei=AWn2SJWNMYXuvAXX0NzlDw&usg=AFQjCNHzlcBq9ouP1NyBs_tE8sYokaZ_ww&sig2=7BUdQvZI8eqoF61QQrIdpw), chocolate-chip cherry cookies (http://www.cookingdebauchery.com/cooking_debauchery/2008/01/browned-butter.html), and a bag of the most insane candies known to man (http://www.cookingdebauchery.com/cooking_debauchery/2008/02/szechuan-pepper.html).

There was also a few assorted moddable boxes which he'd gotten from his room. They weren't quite as fresh, but they were still good.

"How's this?" he asked around the armful.

Re: Talk to Hoshi

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Wow!" said Hoshi. "That's great! It looks like you've been busy."

Re: Talk to Hoshi

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He put the boxes down first.

"It's a hobby," he admitted with a brief grin. "Like collecting miniature furniture. How're things going?"

Re: Talk to Hoshi

[wantstodirect]

"Oh, those look great!" Tony exclaimed.

Baked goods? Momoko's there.

"Hiiii Hoshi! Wow, All of this looks delicious! Which should I buy? Hmmmmm." She considered the choices available and wondered if one of everything would be too much. Too much money, of course. "Are sales going okay?"

Re: Talk to Hoshi

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Hi Momoko! Sales have been good," said Hoshi, grinning. "If you'd like to try something different, Liir brought some yummy-looking chocolate-chip cherry cookies."

And make your purchases without Hoshi's help.

Among the donations to the bake sale were a certain naughtily named cookie for which Lulu was likely now infamous on the island -- cookies made with ground hazelnut, and with a dollop of chocolate in a hollow on the top.

Mac was browsing and supporting. She'd sort of been in hibernation since the weekend (just to be sure the crazy was really gone) and this was probably the best way of making up for that.

Now I'm nostalgic for all the fundraisers I ran in college. Instead of a bake sale, though, we sold churros.

Don't forget that the first floor lobby is open to teachers and townies! Everyone is welcome to donate to the sets and costumes fund.
