Baking: Sweet and Savory | Monday, 3rd period

[sharp_as_knives]

The students had been warned ahead of time with an e-mail to meet at the causeway instead of the classroom. When they got there, they would find Hannibal and a portal, and through the portal a Land Rover Range Rover Sport with three rows.

Hannibal ushered them all through the portal before explaining. "In my experience, these weeks are very bad for concentration, which means a very bad time for dealing with heat and sharp objects. Because of this, and because a bit of time away from the island can only help, we will be having a field trip today." He waved them toward the vehicle. "Shortest people in the back, please."

As he drove, Hannibal explained. "When you mention baking, one of the first things people will think of is cakes. They're a common baked good, and like the mochi last week, can be made simple or more complex. Today we will be visiting a commercial bakery that specializes in cakes. We will have a tour, and then your class today will be taught by their bakers and artists." Which would involve no pollen, and no students dealing with heat or knives.

The tour was actually pretty neat. Sparkle was kind of throwing himself into looking at stuff with a reckless abandon, which meant that by the end of the tour he was also reminding himself that all of the shit he'd picked up on the walk around the shop, he was going to probably have to actually pay for.

He'd probably miss something or other somewhere in there, but he made a big enough purchase that they probably wouldn't think to check.

He... had no idea what the hell he was going to do with this many measuring scoops, though.

Anything Sparkle neglected to pay for, Hannibal would just steal back and put where it belonged, or pay for it himself. He liked to keep professional relationships with people. And Sparkle wasn't exactly at his best today.
