Piper smiles at the students as they arrive. "We're going to make chocolate chip cookies today. As always, I brought some samples."

"Next week, you get to bake whatever you want. I'd like each of you to find a recipe before then. They can easily be found online," she continues. She peers at all of them warily. "Try not to choose something that requires open flames."

Then she hands them a list of ingredients and instructions. "Feel free to ask questions if you have any."

Pip thinks he's got this one-handed egg cracking bussiness down.

Of course, what Pip thinks and what reality is aren't always the same thing.

Jude, on the other hand, totally does.

He's also trying to figure out how to incorporate pudding mix into the recipe.

"Yo, dude."

"Yo Jude," Pip said. "What's up?"

Jude shrugged mellowly. "Not much, bro. You?"

"I have a new, evil cat," Pip said, holding up his bandaged arm.

"Whoa. Harsh."

Pip nodded. "It keeps attacking me. And I've kind of given up on the idea of it leaving, since it seems to like me in it's own way. ~~It's a shame there's no one around who might, ya know, negotiate with it for me.~~"

"~~Shut up shut up shut up.~~ Yeah, cats are like that some times," Jude chuckled. "My aunt has like fifty of them."

"I swear, though," Pip said, "this thing is pure malovolence. It attacks me every morning five minutes before my alarm goes off."

Jude was trying not to laugh at his pain, really. He was. His shoulders were shaking a little as he measured out his sugar, though.
