[ applause! ]

Now half a teaspoon of baking powder, and we'll be done with the dry ingredients.

[fishingforcompliments]

...

[carefully shakes out about enough baking powder to fill roughly half of the teaspoon instead of just using the half-teaspoon.]

[muragas]

[ hmmmmmmmm ]

Close enough. Go ahead and mix all that together, and then add three tablespoons of milk.

[fishingforcompliments]

[continuing on with the mixing and the adding of milk and so on!]

Oh - it looks a little more like batter now...

[muragas]

Yeah, and since the milk added moisture, everything clumps up a bit, see? So it's better to mix all the dry things together before then.

[ ahhh, what's next ]

Okay, now just a tablespoon of oil, and then a dash of the vanilla.

[fishingforcompliments]

[she pours the oil, but - pauses at the vanilla]

...how much, exactly, is a dash?

[muragas]

Um... it's concentrated extract, I think, so... a teaspoon should be plenty. Most of the flavor should be coming from the strawberries, anyways.

[ hey wouldn't it be wild if Fodlan didn't have measuring cups or teaspoons ]

[fishingforcompliments]

[please don't make me think about what does and doesn't exist in fire emblem


luckily, flayn has had some cooking lessons here, so she knows! with a nod, she grabs a teaspoon, pours in some vanilla extract, and then adds it to the concoction.]

I see! So it is about that much...

[muragas]

It is! Good eye.

[ she applauds ]

Now, mix in the chopped up strawberries, and pour half of what you've got into a mug.

[fishingforcompliments]

[in go the strawberries! she mixes them in, then pours about half out, very carefully.

(despite her caution, some of it dribbles down the side of one of the mugs.)]

I assume the other half goes into another mug?

[muragas]

[ Minako will absently wipe up the little dribble. it's fine, no biggie~ ]

You got it! Don't forget to use the child cheater to get all the batter!

[fishingforcompliments]

...

The what?

[muragas]

The child cheater. To scrape the sides?

[ :) ]

[fishingforcompliments]

I... still do not know what you mean.

[muragas]

... You use it to scrape all the cake batter from the bowl so there's nothing left for the kids to taste?

[fishingforcompliments]

...so... a spatula?
