How to Survive Your Own Cooking, Tuesday Mar 11
Onion Knight stood at the front of the class, on Lulu's desk. He waved at the class as they came in and pointed his wee little sword at the board, where Lulu had written a note:
Today,, it began, you have the recipes from the second class at your individual stations. Get into groups of three at each station, and then Liir will provide variations on each recipe. Look to him for guidance in this case. (Yes, Liir, this means that you don't need to join a group this week; help out others as they need it.)
Follow Liir's variations, or vary them again yourselves; still, the basis for each recipe must remain what you learned in the second class. That means no frying bacon in a frying pan.
Although I do recommend frying the bread in the syrup-bacon grease mixture from the baking sheet, once the bacon is finished.
Again, listen to Liir; he'll provide what guidance you need for this class. I'll return for the last ten minutes of class to supervise clean-up, and to see what you have all accomplished.
Once he'd indicated the note, Onion Knight flopped himself onto the side of the desk, swinging his legs merrily over the edge.
[Plz to be waiting for OCD is up!]

Assignment: Breakfast in Variations!
Introduction
kill itgive it a wedgie with his mind before turning to the class."Well," he said at first, "t-this is as much of a surprise to me as it is to you."
Stupid stutter!
"B-but I'm sure this won't be too hard. B-breakfast is an easy enough meal and one that can be enjoyed at any time. So give me just, uh, a moment and I'll have something up for you.
"A-and if anyone needs help or doesn't like what I've come up with or just wants to c-c-chat really, do feel free to call for me. Um. Liir. Yes."
Recipe 1: Homemade Cereal
He dug into the spice racks and over to the closet where they kept the dry supplies. A moment's thought brought him to the fridge as well and more ingredients were added.
"Think about foods you enjoy, specifically baked goods. Try making something like a breakfast version of your favorite cookies. Get creative with spices. I'd suggest ginger or cinnamon. Perhaps add a bit of chocolate shavings while you're cooking them up, or" and he held up the vegetable in question "if you prefer a carrot cake, try something in that direction. The possibilities are endless; don't let your perception of boring oatmeal block you from trying things out."
Recipe 2: Eggs
"There's more ways to do eggs than just scrambled. Try" and he scribbled out his notes onto a few pieces of paper "coddled (http://whatscookingamerica.net/Eggs/CoddledEgg.htm), poached (http://whatscookingamerica.net/Eggs/PoachEgg.htm), shirred (http://whatscookingamerica.net/Eggs/BakedEgg.htm), or fried (http://whatscookingamerica.net/Eggs/FriedEgg.htm) instead. Instructions are available for whichever one you're interested in."

Speak to Onion Knight!
Speak to Lulu!
Re: Speak to Lulu!
The cupcakes where there for those who want them; Lulu was there for anyone who needed to speak to her.
[I would totally have the recipe for those cupcakes except the cookbook that it's in is currently at my mother's house. Argh. I should get it back in the next couple of days, and I'll post the recipe -- because, dude, lavender cupcakes.]
Re: Speak to Lulu!
He took a cupcake and handed back a small bag of cookies (http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Orange-Cranberry-Drops/Detail.aspx).
Re: Speak to Lulu!
Re: Speak to Lulu!
He shook his head and bit into the cupcake.
"...these are very good, though."
Re: Speak to Lulu!
Re: Speak to Lulu!
People with faith in him. He never really understood it.
"At least that there's more than one way to make eggs."

"The Witch preferred hers coddled, usually."
OOC!
Sorry for having flaked out on finishing up class last week! Lulu will be giving marks, etc., once she arrives at the end of class. And will also be arriving with the promised dessert she was going to be handing out last week as a reward.
... It's a surprise. :D
