So I made a pie. Well, more than one pie. It took some experimenting with the ovens we have here, so I ended up with more than one. so if anyone wants some just drop me a line.

I think I'd like to try a quiche next...but I'm not sure how easy it'd be to find eggs.

And bread too. obviously we don't have any dry yeast...or is there? But there must be some way to do it even without it, right? I mean, people were making bread before they started using the dry yeast you find in supermarkets. I think it'd be worth the effort since we can keep bread at room temperature!

I'd also like to see if anyone would like to spar? I could also use some more sword handling tips if anyone knows anything about that. I'm okay with any time in the day. Even late at night is fine!

[His sleep cycle is very messed up, okay?]

What kind of pie?

[sonofbarbara]

apple pie!

just apple pies. i couldn't really find any other fruits. but i did find some cinamon!

[illequipped]

Of course you couldn't find any fruits in a place like this. I will take two pies.

You ought to make bread before quiche.

[sonofbarbara]

We'll have to see what we can find when it's spring again.

Awesome. I hope you don't mind that some of them are...less than perfect.

Baking with a wood burning oven was an experience.

I think bread would be better too. It keeps better and you can use it for more things. But I still need yeast.

[illequipped]

Maybe? I'm guessing nothing because this place is terrible. Or it's all going to be small and look wrong.

Where do you get yeast?

[Emil has the most important thing covered here, so—]

what is quiche
is it sweet

[sonofbarbara]

It's savoury. It's like a pie. but the filling is made of eggs.

And there's no cover so I guess it's really more like a tart.

[ilves]

oh
savoury tarts sound gross
you should make sweets instead
the round cinnamon things

[sonofbarbara]

Hey, don't knock it till you try it! You never know. You might end up liking it.

Do you mean cinnamon rolls?

[Were there any other round cinnamon things?]

i think we still have chickens? i cant remember who had them though

ive just been doing flat breads since we dont have any yeast

[sonofbarbara]

Someone has chickens? I really need to figure out where they are. I could have made these pies so much nicer with a proper egg wash.

Ooooh. I hadn't thought flat breads! Wraps would be just a convenient as a sandwich! can't make french toast out of it though.

[satanslash]

yeah its been a while since ive looked so i cant remember who it was sorry

no but its still filling which is needed around ehre

[sonofbarbara]

that's fine! it's not like this place is big. i'm sure we'll run into each other sooner or later.

true! and wraps are even more portable than sandwiches!

do you have a recipe you're willing to share??

[ From cooking to swords!? ... a pie. I want to eat something like that...!! Hey, hey, focus! ]

Why do you want to learn the sword?

[sonofbarbara]

[Just ask for some pie. He likes feeding people!]

I can't let my skills get rusty while I'm here. And I've pretty much just been learning from Blinky and Draal. And they've been busy back home for a while now.

Plus, with so many people from other places here, I can probably pick up some neat new tricks!

[shizun]

..........?! JIM LAKE JR.!? ]

Don't train late at night. Do you wish to ruin your sleep?

[sonofbarbara]

[If he knew who he was talking to right now he'd have already gone, 'oh crud'.]

It's fine! I can function just fine with only a few hours of sleep.

Sparring sounds good. I think I need a break from all the washing dishes.

[sonofbarbara]

Me too.

Not that I mind doing dishes...but I've got a bit too much free time. If all these pies on my table are any indication.

[allfornothing]

Dishes make sense when you're the one doing the cooking. Or the eating. Not so much when you're... not. Or even volunteering to help.

[sonofbarbara]

Wait. If you weren't eating, cooking or volunteering...then why are you doing dishes?

i would love to try a pie if you are offering! or a qiche. i am unfamiliar with both, but i am sure they will be delicious.

also, while i have no sword, i do have a lot of experience, and can happily offer advice on the use of one if you'd like.

[sonofbarbara]

I'm definitely offering! I can't possibly finish all these pies by myself!

That'd be great! It's been a while since I've had an actual teacher. My usual trainers back home have been indisposed recently.

[One because he was organizing a bunch of refugees and the other because he's been brainwashed and has been trying to kill him every time they meet. Fun times.]

[holycurse]

you're very generous!

i've never been an actual teacher before myself, but i am always happy to view some swordplay. are your usual trainers alright?

["Indisposed" can mean so many things.....]

[sonofbarbara]

Well, food tastes best when it's shared, right?

I'm sure you'll be fine!

More or less. Things have been pretty crazy right before I got here.

[To put it really mildly.]

But everything will be fine.

[He'll help make sure of it.]
