Ignis was rather pleased to find that the weather that day was rather cool and rainy, which generally made for a miserable camping experience and, therefor, helped make things feel much more authentic. Not only that, but it meant that the students could practically apply the things they learned last week, as he had them all gather underneath a tarp with their supplies in their spot in the preserve.

"Today," he explained to them, "will be a relatively simple day. Thanks to the cooperation of the weather," he gave an almost sardonic sort of gesture toward the world as a whole, "we can re-established our campfire building skills even in the dampest of conditions, which will hopefully serve you well as we work on two relatively simple recipes that will provide for a hearty and comfortining meal when one find themselves in less than favorable conditions when out on the field. Sometimes, all you need is a nice, hearty meal in your stomach to make things not all so gloomy after all. So I'll give you all some time to prepare a station, and then we shall begin."

Because what better way to start your morning than by building shelter and a fire in the rain!

By now, Lucille should probably have noticed that her clothes weren't suitable for camping. She had not, or rather she had refused to adapt to it. In the rain, long heavy skirts were even worse, and they got muddier and muddier as she tried, not successfully, to light the fire.

Once everyone is set up and seems to have a decent fire going (whether they were able to pull it off by themselves or not), it's time to get cooking, and so Ignis will lead them through preparing a nice campfire chili and some cornbread to accompany it, emphasizing how the Dutch oven and skillet methods of cooking will help develop some nice flavor, and encouraging them all to consider variations on the recipes to help make them their own if they so desire.

Putting things in a Dutch oven and a skillet shouldn't be too hard, and it might have been successful if Lucille hadn't managed to add too much chili. Was it still edible? It depended on your taste.

He feels confident that even this class should be able to handle these recipes with no problem.

The chili, at the very least. The cornbread might...be a bit more interesting.
