So You're New To The Multiverse....; Friday, First Period [02/14].

[somethingwithturquoise]

That morning, an email (or courier pigeon or squirrel Post-It note or whatever your preferred official school correspondence may be) was sent out to the students of Summer's class:

Just imagine, there's a dimension out there right now where the pollen is even worse and my students are STILL having to go to class! Thankfully, this is not that dimension! Enjoy the day off! Happy Valentine's Day! Have a five page essay about how nice it is to not be in that dimension ready for next week!

JUST KIDDING.

I don't want to read that just as much as I'm sure you don't want to write it!

Lots of Love,
Summer Smith

She did think of just taking a field trip to a dimension of Fandom without the pollen, but a class period was rarely even long enough for the effects to start going down, and it just seemed cruel at that point, anyway, really.

Potatoes!, Friday, Second Period

[carbsliftthespirit]

Raiden seemed outwardly just about the same as he always did this week, because seriously, he was starving for something or other all the time. He could handle this.

Also, unlike his brother, his fake ID worked at the gay clubs of Baltimore. So that helped.

"Potatoes aren't the food most heavily associated with Valentine's Day," he told his students, "and while I'm sure there are dishes using both potatoes and chocolate out there, I thought we'd use this opportunity to talk about sweet potatoes! The sweet potato is also from South America, but it's only distantly related to the regular potato in, like, plant relationship terms. It is, you guessed it, sweet, and also usually orange. Some people call it a yam, and some people get snippy about that because yams come from Africa and aren't related to sweet potatoes at all. I say potato, po-tah-to. You can do a lot of the same things with sweet potatoes you can with potato potatoes--bake them, make fries out of them, mash them--but where they really shine is in sweet potato casserole, either with marshmallows or a streusel-y pecan topping on top. I, uh, I don't trust you guys with sharp or hot objects right now," look, he was just calling it like it was, "so I made some of each ahead of time so you can sample them and decide which one is your favorite!"

Cupcake Wars (Yes, Again), Friday 2/14, 3rd period

[stykera]

Cupcake class had been canceled with a note reading simply no class. Busy. Take one.

The take one referring to some cupcakes that looked suspiciously like boobs (they were from JGoB, it wasn't his fault). And some bottles of water because hydration was important.
