Competitive Cooking - Wednesday, Period 3 [8/4]

Piper's goal was simple. She wanted to assign something fairly easy in the hopes that class would end a little early. The reason? She was heading home for a few days as soon as class was over. Not that there was a rush or anything since she did know multiple people who could teleport.

"Hey, I'm assigning something fun this week. I want you to pair up and make something that involves chocolate," she told the class before giving a short lecture about baked goods. "So, it can be anything you want. Chocolate tends to make anything better."

Though as soon as she finished saying that, she regretted it. Maybe she should have shown a movie instead.

Tara looked distinctly dubious about that news. "How about I melt the chocolate, and you measure and mix the flour and things?" she asked. "It ... might go faster that way."

"I think so too," Rilla said with a relieved smile. "I can crack eggs, too. I'm not entirely hopeless any longer."

"OH, good," Tara said, with a light, nervous laugh as she broke the chocolate into the saucepan. "I'm, um, always a little surprised how many people didn't cook at home. My mom made me learn, y'know, pancakes and hamburgers and stuff."

"Susan tried to teach me but declared me a hopeless case," Rilla replied.

"Susan?" Tara repeated, glancing over. "Is she your sister?"

"She's our housekeeper," Rilla said. "She used to help mind us when we were younger, as well."

"That sounds nice," Tara said cautiously. Kennedy had her a little more comfortable with the idea of servants, but it was still strange with her. "It sounds like she's almost family, huh?"

"She's been with our family since Jem was born and he's going into his first year of medical school in the fall," Rilla replied happily.

"That sounds sweet," Tara said, but she was distracted watching the chocolate and butter. Were they supposed to bubble like that? She stirred it mroe and turned down the heat.

"Medical school, wow. Your family must be so excited."

"Father is over the moon," Rilla said. "He says Jem has the hands of a born surgeon."
