Cupcakes, Friday 7/15, 2nd Period
Once again, cupcake class was meeting in the home ec room. Once again, Stark was waiting at the front of the room. Once again, there was a box sitting on the counter that the teacher was eyeing warily. Maybe it would be a perfectly normal box of ingredients like last week. Maybe that was just wishful thinking.
“Welcome back,” he said, looking around the room. “Today I’ve brought red ingredients for red cupcakes. Or pink ones, since sometimes the red turns pink when it’s mixed in. But it starts out as red and that counts. So…” he let his voice trail off as he looked to the box. “I suppose it’s best just to open this up and see what there is inside. I know what’s meant to be there but that doesn’t always mean anything around here.”
He took a deep breath and opened the box to start taking out ingredients. “I have Swedish Fish which are candy fish and the only acceptable sort of fish to put in a dessert.” Arguments could be possibly be made for pretzel goldfish crackers but not right now. “There are cinnamon candies as well. And I have raspberries and strawberries and cherries.” This was going well enough so far, and Stark was almost optimistic about the rest of the contents of the box. “More cherries, the kind from a jar, and some watermelon, and cranberries.”
“And, unfortunately, we have beets. And more beets. And we have tomato juice and cayenne pepper. And then there are more spicy peppers. Sometimes chocolate and spicy can go well together but these seem…too much. And look, there’s a bottle of hot sauce. Why is there hot sauce?” Stark asked nobody in particular. Not even Summer. He knew there wasn’t an answer.
“Is that everythi-oh no. It’s not everything. There’s also cough syrup. At least,” he said with a sigh as he picked up the box and tipped it over just to be certain, “that’s the end. And there wasn't any seafood.” Certainly not any fermented seafood, Summer.
“So. We have plenty of ingredients to choose from. Please don’t use the medicine.” Summer.
