Sand everywhere...

[The broom finished sweeping the rest of the sand over the threshold and out into the street before Eagle addressed the network. ]

Does anyone know the reason why there is so much sand in the City? It was fun at first with that beach party and all but now I am really beginning to get concerned about it.
Now matter how many times I sweep out this shoppe the sand seems to return.

[A slight drizzle of sand from above catches Eagle’s attention and he steps back into the doorway of Geo’s Sweet Shoppe just as the sign above his head completes it’s transformation into sand and crashes to earth right where he had been standing. ]

Ah!
The sign just…

Is that where all it is coming from, objects are actually turning into sand? Has anyone else had something like this happen?



[Action - Shopping later in the day]

[The Commander looked through the racks of clothing that claimed to be spring fashions for 2012. What were people thinking? ]

Too flashy…
[Green School Boy - Rejected ]

Too strange…
[Hat with Poof - Rejected ]

Too… just too…
[Men’s Dress - Rejected ]

Hmm, but this in nice.
[Attractive Blue and White - Possibility ]

And this is definitely different than your usual color choices.

[Eagle stops looking through the racks and looks over his shoulder to see how Lantis is doing. ]

Have you found anything you like?

Can anything ever really be called too sweet?

[Not in his opinion. ]

I had no idea you enjoyed baking! Do you do it often?
[Um... run? Eagle does LOVE sweets. ]

I have never believed it was possible to think too much. It might come out a bit confusing for others but I enjoy your unique way of looking at things.

Oh yeah. I bake a lot. I call it food experimentation cause I hardly ever use a recipe but I don't think it's ever been too sweet contrary to popular opinion. Too sweet isn't possible.

But lately I've been all chef like and trying to learn how to cook too. And that's been fun. Cause cooking and baking aren't always the same thing in the world of food experimentation. I mean you can pile the sugar in and it's nothing but you pile the salt in? Not so good.

[Her smile is audible in the tone of her voice.] I'm glad someone understands. I swear I freak myself out all the time with the confusing and the thinking and the general messing things up.

[No recipe + sugar = ... ??

Trouble?

He might need to reconsider his interest in this. ]

I had a bit of trouble learning how to cook myself, but with a recipe and a little guidance from Tsubaki I have managed to figure it out at least reasonably well.
How have your experiments been going? Have you had much success with a recipe yet?

Well I rock at sugary things. It's the dinner kind of cooking that I've never really tried all that much or been very good at when I have tried. I made lasagna for this household dinner the other night and Buffy and my sister said it was a little salty but good. Next up comes something made in a wok. Have you ever made anything in a wok? I just got one and it's kind of intimidating. Cookware probably shouldn't be intimidating.

[eagleofautozam]

A wok? No, I really haven't. I still have a tendency to leave the more complicated recipes to the experts.
We do a lot of restaurants.

Your lasagna only being a little too salty isn't bad at all. Congratulations.

Well somehow at the dinner we got on the topic of woks. And I had to find out what a wok was. After a little research, I now know what it is and I think I'll make brown rice and stir fry with it. I can invite you and your guy when I decide to get all ambitious in the kitchen! That way you can see how much I rock or how much I suck. If I suck, I usually have pizza on backorder. So there will be food regardless. Buffy, Faith and Dom will be there for sure. We'll have to see if Aya is busy or not. He missed my lasagna dinner. But it's a good group of people.

Oh, thank you. I think that would be very nice. As long as you don't think we would be any trouble?
Would it be more difficult to try and cook for that many people?

[ voice ]

[the_dawnster]

Oh no, not any more difficult. I mean you just add extra stuff, right? I could totally do that. If I'm good at anything it's at doing something a hundred and ten percent. It's the extra ten percent that can either make you or break you, by the way. I discovered that one myself.
