Home Ec is Outrageous!; Monday, Period Five [ 05/24 ].
Today was a very exciting day in the outrageous world of home ec! Today was cooking!
It was the sort of class that made Aquaman grateful for the fact that he was teaching it. Not that he wanted to sound skeptical of his students skills, but he was glad this was all going to happen under the watchful eye of someone who could easily manipulate water to put out flames.
"Hello, my adventurous academics!" Aquaman greeted them with the usual vigor, but not the usual attire. Oh, sure, of course the orange shirt and the green tights were still there, but, over them, Aquaman was wearing a very nice apron. And, in his hands, he held ready a spatula and a whisk. "I hope you've got your culinary creativity ready today, because we'll be working on cooking! Food is essential to our survival, and it can also contribute greatly to our happiness! There are few things as satisfying and simple as providing a well-prepared, well-balanced meal for your loved ones!"
He set down the spatula, took up a marker, and turned to the dry erase board:
"Cooking is like love. It should be entered into with abandon or not at all! --Harriet Van Horne"
Proudly, he turned back to the classroom. "As long as you try, even if what you come up with is inedible, it was still made with love and that's what counts!"
Apparently, according to Aquaman, you could sustain yourself on love and good intentions alone. Of course, he had yet to sample any of his students' cooking...
"We will be partnering up for this activity, my young chefs, because preparing food can be a great activity to do with others. Bonding with baking! Comaradarie with cooking! So, find a friend to work with and then come get from me your black boxes! You won't know what ingredients are within until you get them, but, once you do, you must go through and plan three courses of a meal around those ingedients: a starter, a main course, and a delectable dessert! After you've put together your menu, attempt to make what you can! Since we have limited time, you are only expected to try one part of your menu, but if you can do more, by all means!"
"As we get toward the end of class, we will share whatever of our dishes might be finished. If you're feeling a little stuck, I've brought in some fine cookbooks to help!"
With that, Aquaman took up his mighty spatula again. "So pair up and bon apetit, ravenous little renegate! Let's eat!"
...hopefully.
