Baking Workshop 7/10, Monday Morning

Piper smiles at the students as they arrive. She kind of already fears for the home ec classroom. "Good morning everyone. I'm Piper, in case some of you don't already know that."

She points out a plate of brownies on the counter. "I usually make samples of the assignments I choose. Today is no exception. As you can see, you're going to bake brownies today."

She hands them each a list of ingredients and instructions. "I try to make the instructions as easy to follow as possible, but, if you ever have questions or need help with anything, please don't hesitate to ask."

Cally wandered up to Piper with a soft smile on her face, and an envelope (http://sogothcally.livejournal.com/32958.html#cutid3) in her hand.

Marie looked over the instructions. These seemed easy enough.

She started gathering her ingredients.

Cally was also gathering her ingredients. She was pretty good and following directions, so this wouldn't be too hard.

"Hey," she said, as she went about her gathering. "I fully apologize if I end up getting flour everywhere today... or any day, for that matter."

"Nope," Cally said. "Just, erm, wanted to give you this." She held out the envelope. "See, it was going to come with cookies or something? But hopefully you can wait until after the class."

"Don't worry about it," Marie said easily. "My momma always said you weren't really baking if you didn't end up messy."

Bel signed in and took TWO brownies. Growing boy and all.

Bel decided to be a smart ass and melted the butter in his hand. Unfortunately, he melted the microwave safe bowl, too. Oops. Mmm, burning plastic.

"I hate you," Bel mouthed to Piper.

Cally thought for a second. "Maybe the best idea, yeah."

"Well, my mom always told me messes were the product of carelessness, so I'm thinking we come from very different homes," Cally said, continuing to make sure she had everything. "Then again, my mom never baked. Or cooked."

"Okie-doke," Cally said. "If you wanna, like, talk about it? Feel free to keep me after class. Got nowhere else to be today." She pointed back towards the classroom. "Should probably get onto the baking, though."

"Sounds like it," Marie agreed with a smile. "I grew up in Mississippi. Where are you from?"

"Oasis," Cally said. "on Caprica. Which, surprise, 'nother planet and stuff."

Bel flicked some flour toward Piper.
