For our final class of the first session," said Summer, but don't you all worry! They'll be back next time! Hopefully. If no truly concerned citizens or mooses intervened, "we're going to focus on some nice, refreshing beverages."
She gestured helpfully toward the line of pitchers set before her.
"How refreshing, you may ask? 7-Up and Milk refreshing!"
“That doesn’t sound refreshing,” Stark said mildly. “It doesn’t look it either.”
"And," said Summer, "if you didn't think a lemon-lime soda in milk was bad enough, just you wait, because we've got a recipe that adds it to tomato juice with what's called a Sparkling Red Rouser, intended to rouse your appetite!"
"Or you could just stick with some hot buttered lemonade. Now there's some words you're not used to hearing all together!"
“Couldn’t we have done something rainbow colored and harmless, for the weekend?” Stark asked plaintively. “Or perhaps or not harmless but maybe less…buttered lemonade?”
"Absolutely not." Stark, you already knew that answer. And to think, you could have done whatever you wanted and let Summer skip this class, but noooo. "Let's grab some glasses and drink up, everyone."
“I would have thought,” Stark said dryly, “you might be wary of drinking odd things right now. At least none of them have mayonnaise in them?”
"Yet."
On that very ominous note Stark just sighed and waved a hand at the drinks. “I suppose we all ought to get on with it then.”
