Magic of Baking: Week 7, Period 3

Alysha might have been looking more than a little bit distracted during this, the final meeting of their class. The tug in her heart that led back to her family was stronger than ever, and she couldn't quite concentrate on anything but the urge to call Charlie and have her take her home.

When Alysha found out which auntie had caused this, she was going to be very displeased.

"Last class today!" she said once everyone was assembled in the Home Ec room. "Thank you all for being a fun one, and I hope you've learned a little of use." Even if it was just the difference between sugar and salt... "Today we're working on making an Australian treat that's kinda awesome. The Pavlova. It's a little bit finicky so I'd advise you guys pair up to do this and double check your partner." She was rather hoping Karla and Rilla didn't pair up. That sounded like it would end badly.

"So, let's give it a try. And before you leave, pick up a copy of the recipe book I made up. It has all the receipes we made in class along with a moddable assortment of other ones to check out."

Cassidy thought this recipe looked pretty wonderful so she was being very careful about gathering up what she would need. She was also looking around for a partner as she did so.

"Want a partner?" Karla asked Cassidy with a smile. "Two Kaeleeran witches--what could possibly go wrong?"

Run, Cassidy. No one will blame you.

Sookie hadn't ever even heard of a pavlova, so she was actually kind of excited to make it -- even if, as she looked over the recipe, she was a little unsure about her own ability to handle it.

Cassidy grinned. "Of course. We'll make the best one ever."

Oh Cassidy, your optimism...

Cara looked around for a partner, as having someone to do the work read the recipe without difficulty would be useful. She just hoped this Australian 'treat' didn't involve insects of any description.

[I'm for bed though, so SP is love.]

They're bastard things to make, but so, so tasty.

Sookie was here, idly stealing bits of fruit to munch on.

Rilla Blythe.

Ugh, Karla.

Harper was already off to a rough start. She'd already gone through half a dozen eggs without successfully separating the egg whites from the yolks. She could use all the help she could get.

"Too true!" Karla said cheerfully, grabbing a few eggs to begin separating. "We can bring it to Reserves afterwards."

Egg 1: Shattered in Karla's hands
Egg 2: Shell pieces got mixed in, too numerous to separate
Egg 3-4: Accidentally dropped
Egg 5: Separated! Unfortunately, it was the whites that got discarded
Egg 6-8: Yolk got mixed in
Egg 9: Whites successfully separated and placed in a bowl.

"Only three more to go!"

Cassidy had never really seen someone destroy so many eggs in an attempt to cook before. It was a good thing that her amazement could be taken as being impressed by Karla -- since she really was -- as she watched.

"While you're doing the hardest part of it, I can mix up the topping."

Yes, Cassidy, you definitely should be the one to mix up the ingredients for the topping.

Perhaps you should hide that vinegar, too.

It was almost artistic! Assuming failure was considered an artform.

"Good plan," Karla said, nodding. "This is taking a little longer than I expected."

Egg 10: Rolled off the counter.

"I'm sure I'll have them done soon, though. Hmmm...maybe we should ask Professor Gale for more eggs. We're running low."

Cassidy nodded. "I can go ask her (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/2515290.html?thread=162379610#t162379610) while you're busy, Karla," she volunteered.

Vinegar, not at hand.

Cassidy, still impressed by all of this.
