Reckon y'can shake the milk t'get some manner of buttery substance if'n it's thick enough. But that takes time.

A salad would work. Is there enough fruit for that?

And, yes -- cookies or biscuits would take a fair amount of time as well as that. I doubt that will be an option for now.

Re: ❧ round one

[bad_in_latin]

Looks t'be the case. Plenty of variety.

There's a melon and bananas that we could cut up, and strawberries, and some plain leafy stuff for bulk.

Re: ❧ round one

[witchesloveme]

[nods!]

That would likely be enough for the full appetizer.

Re: ❧ round one

[bad_in_latin]

Make 'em all fancy like in bowls?

Re: ❧ round one

[doesnothappen]

Should I start chopping something?

Re: ❧ round one

[witchesloveme]

We do have bowls, do we not? That would get points for presentation.

The melon, perhaps? We could each work on a banana, to speeden things.

Re: ❧ round one

[bad_in_latin]

We could each take a bowl an' arrange it to look like somethin'. Wouldn't match, but it could turn out pretty.

Re: ❧ round one

[yourmama]

I could do that! Look like anythin'?

Re: ❧ round one

[bad_in_latin]

Whatever y'remember. She did mention us usin' our skills and such.

Re: ❧ round one

[yourmama]

Then I'm gonna make a dragon salad.

Re: ❧ round one

[bad_in_latin]

An' I reckon mine'll look like a cow.

Re: ❧ round one

[yourmama]

Huh. You know cows?

Re: ❧ round one

[bad_in_latin]

Got a skill dealin' with them. I'll be guessin' as to their looks.

Re: ❧ round one

[yourmama]

Fruit cows… I kinda like it.

[nods, cuts the melon into quarters with the butcher knife, wipes it, and then starts using his own belt-knife to cut the melon flesh in little raspberry-sized cubes]

This size?

Re: ❧ round one

[witchesloveme]

That looks right.

Re: ❧ round one

[doesnothappen]

Maybe we'd better save some fruit in case we need it later, though.

Re: ❧ round one

[witchesloveme]

[nods]

And it is only a light meal. Just small bowls should be satisfactory.

Re: ❧ round one

[doesnothappen]

[cuts up a bit less than half the melon]

Is that alright?
