Welcome class. I didn't bring any snacks, because today in class we are going to Prepare a Thanksgiving Meal!

This way, if you are staying on campus you can make your own meal, or assist the person cooking for you so no one dies from eating your undercooked turkey becomes ill.

First, please watch my demonstration on preparing an apricot-glazed turkey with roasted onion and shallot gravy.

Then I'd like you to make a side dish of your choosing. You may work alone or in groups. Stuffing, cranberry sauce, green bean salad, hot rolls, a casserole, a pie... we have all the ingredients. Have fun, and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

*Bree hands all of her students a box as they go, filled with holiday themed decorations for their table, whether they want it or not. Stupid napkin holders, weird centerpieces, themed tablecloths, window hangings... you're stuck with them.*

[OOC: If your character desperately needs holiday meal prep help, feel free to crash class. Bree is very friendly if just slightly psychotic, and in theory you could smell the food passing by in the hall.]

Maia fought a laugh "Well if you want the easy route to satisfaction, I think it may be less fullfilling though."

She shakes her head and rolls her eyes a little, though she's still smiling "well if you really want to stuff a turkey, but I'm assuming that's gonna involve making the actual stuffing too!" she says

Maia lost it then and was laughing "No-no cranberry sauce if fine. I'd hate to have to get all that good stuffing built up for the turkey. Not really my style" Maia washed off the cranberries in the sink.

She laughed just a little, but it was pretty clear she wasn't much in the mood, she was worried about Sawyer, but knew she had to just let it drop for a while. If he needed protecting she'd know, she was sure of it.

When Paige did not respond with a usual quip Maia stopped laughing and quietly washed another batch of cranberries and set the water to boil. "Sorry." she said after a few minutes

Paige shrugged and forced a smile, "it's okay, just you know, Sawyer." she was making a consious effect not to call him James in public, the less people who knew they were the same people the better. "he's doesn't want me protecting him, so well I'm just trying keep my distance."

Maia nodded and was quiet for a few moments remembering their conversation that morning. "Do you need to come stay at my place tonight?"

She thought a moment, she had to get used to being alone really "I dunno, maybe, I'll see how I feel later if that's cool." she forces a smile, "I'm okay Maia, just a little worried"

Maia hugs Paige quickly with one arm, squeezing her shoulder and then goes back to working on their cranberry sauce.
