Home Ec- Monday- 2nd period

[gobrookeyourself]

"Hello, class," Brooke greeted them when everybody was here. "Since this is Home Ec, we have to talk a little about cooking. Now, there are classes here that actually deal with that so I'm not going to get too into it, but in case you're not taking them, we have to at least touch on the basics.

"So, today you're going to make these three things: a mug cake, mac and cheese, and the perennial favorite of college students who don't have to worry about what sodium does for their blood pressure yet, instant ramen. They're all fast, so you should be able to finish all three, and it doesn't matter what order you go in. And just remember, if you end up being bad at this, it's okay. Postmates exists."

Make a mug cake

This one needs an actual recipe and a microwave. But still, it takes like seven minutes.

My, but these measuring spoons were so small! Since his mac and cheese hadn't turned out looking much like the picture on the box except in the most forgiving of imaginations, he was taking extra care to get this one right. It made for quite the sight, too, this hulking thing bent over these small cups and delicately putting them together.

After a few missteps with getting the time on the microwave, though, he discovered his hard work had paid off with a lovely little mug cake, and he laughed triumphantly.

"It's almost like a hot cocoa!" he proclaimed with delight. "Only solid!"

Now this... this was a little more up his alley. At least there was an actual recipe this time?

It was perhaps better not to ask how he also managed to make a couple of pies as well.

Six minutes into the exercise, Paris's hand shot up. "We don't have to clean up the microwave after, right?"

Um. Hypothetically?

"...You absolutely do," said Brooke, who hadn't considered that until right this second.
