How to Survive Your Own Cooking, Class 6

"I thought I'd give you all something of a fun class before the mid-term next week," Lulu said. "At each of the stations, you'll find both a typical pizza crust and a loaf of focaccia. Choose one or the other, top as you wish from the fully moddable toppings here at the front of the class, bake them in the already-preheated ovens, and then at the end of the class we'll have a contest for the best-topped flatbread." She grinned, an uncharacteristically wide smile. "Remember that not all pizzas require a tomato-based sauce, so try cream- or oil-based ones if you like. Also, focaccias tend not to have a sauce in the way that pizzas do, although you are free to experiment there if you wish.

"If you're not familiar with either focaccia or pizza, there are handouts at your station as well for you to read before you begin. If any of you have questions or concerns," and here she eyed a few of the students who had been... having difficulties, "please, please approach me."

"I'd like to give you a reminder as well: next week is your mid-term. You will be required to prepare a full meal, three courses -- salad, soup, and entree -- of your choice. You are notpermitted to use recipes directly from this class. The library, I'm sure, has a wide collection of cookbooks, and the internet as well has many resources for recipes. Find them, and then bring them in for next week. I'll be providing the dessert for the meal. Feel free to invite your friends to share in the food -- I imagine that many of them will need the break during the week."

[OCD will be up in a moment is up! I apologize for the lame-ish class, but I slept in today, and so it's a bit of a rush job. ^^;; Also, mmm pizza.]

"But this is me we're talking about," Summer pointed out. "I can't even make coffee right."

"And I burn toast." Shawn grinned. "We make such a great cooking team."
absolutesnark: (Hmmm)

"Maybe our combined bad cooking will cancel each other out and we could end up making a decent pizza," Summer said thoughtfully.

"Way I figure it, we cannot ruin pizza. It's just one of those student staples that anyone can make," Shawn said confidently.
absolutesnark: (Buh?)

"If you say so." Summer still wasn't convinced, though.

"I do." Shawn grinned and poked through the different ingredients on the table.

"Am I past the acceptable time frame to officially ask you to a dance on Friday, yet?"
absolutesnark: (Small Smile)

Summer smiled. "It's not too late."

His smile grew a bit broader at that. "Would you like to come to the masquerade ball with me of Friday?" Shawn asked.
absolutesnark: (Smile)

"Hmmm, I need to think about that." Summer grinned. "Of course I will."

"You're a quick thinker," Shawn said. "I love that."
absolutesnark: (Cute)

"That was a pretty easy decision," Summer replied.

"As easy as the decision of whether to put pepperoni or ham onto this pizza?" Shawn asked, holding his hands out like a pair of scales.

"Because if you can make that one easy... You officially are the perfect woman."
absolutesnark: (Amused)

"Pepperoni," Summer said quickly.

"See! Perfect." Shawn smiled, tossing the packet of ham back onto the table. "I was leaning towards that option, too."

"And being able to agree on pizza toppings is really very important in a relationship."

"Totally," Summer said, snickering.
