Hello loves! While I haven't been writing, I have been working on updating some issues that have been hanging around on the layout! The Character change box is now at the bottom of the page, beside the up/down arrows! Green and Gold dragon flight dates have been shifted to the bottom of the page, where the (useless!) discord widget was located. Where the dragon flights were in the header, is now replaced by a Monthly Event box! This will be updated at the start of each month, with a fun mini-event you can take part in, if you want to! Thistle!

Despite it being an easy recipe with little to throw her for a loop, C'dhin still took his time walking Mylorah through the recipe, pointing out the measurements and how to read his shorthand as well as defining some of the terms he knew weren't commonplace. By the time they were whisking everything together for the final time, C'dhin inspected her batter and had her continue for another minute. It was still a bit lumpy but the colour looked close to his own as did the texture, minus those lumps. Mylorah was a good student, though, and he could already tell she was trying her hardest and wondered if she was doing this to impress someone or simply because she wanted to learn for her own enjoyment. Even if it was to impress someone, he hoped she still took pleasure in the act. Baking made him happy and seeing how much others enjoyed what he created was such a rush that he wanted her to experience it as well.
When the lumps were gone, C'dhin showed her how much to spoon onto the tray for each cookie. "Too much in one and it won't bake eventually. Too little and it will end up darker and crispier than the others. You want to keep them consistent in size and check on them a few minutes prior to the stated time, just in case you stoked the fire too hot." That was a common mistake and he had had dry cookies and cakes over the turns because the person in charge wasn't paying attention. It was why he didn't eat dessert that much anymore unless he supplied it. Snobbish? No doubt, but it was his pride and joy and everyone knew him for it so he felt it was fine to only eat his own now.
"And while the cookies bake, we have twenty minutes to clean up. It's a good practice to keep on top of the dishes, otherwise you'll either end up needing something that's still dirty or you're left to do it all after everything is done and it's a daunting task."
