Baking Workshop 5/22, FH Home Ec Classroom, Monday Morning

[absolutesnark]

Piper smiles at the students as they show up at the home ec classroom after handwave hearing some sort of announcement letting them know to meet here.

"I'm Piper in case some of you might not know," she says somewhat cheerfully, handing each student a syllabus.

She points out the plate of brownies on the counter in front of her. "I made these for you because that is what we will be baking today. Try one if you'd like. I'm told I make the best brownies ever." She smiles proudly. "We will not be making the kind I brought in, though. They have a secret ingredient and, if I told you what it is, I'd have to vanquish you and no one wants that."

Piper grins to let them know she isn't serious about the vanquishing. She hands each student a list of ingredients and instructions. "I'm not going to lecture you because this workshop is supposed to be fun. So we're gonna get started right away. These instructions are, hopefully, easy to follow. If any of you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask."

"Sure, if you want me to," Piper said, obviously feeling brave. She broke a piece off one of the brownies and tried it. It wasn't terrible, but the caked on flour on the bottom kind took away from it a little. "Be careful next time you flour the pan, okay? Other than that, they're not bad."

Maia nodded happily. "I will and thank you." She said taking her plate of brownies carefully away, she didn't want to drop them. She headed back to the counter to wrap them in saran wrap and bring them back to the Koala cabin with her to share with Lana, Phoebe and Bel. "I'll see you next class." Maia said with another beaming smile, the perfect bunt cake was in her grasp she just knew it.
