In honor of the Fish-olympics, I've made fish-shaped pastries!



They're stuffed with berries, cream cheese, custard, or chocolate! Come get some at RED Bread!



Oh, and Prussia! I made some spaghetti bolognese! It's in the fridge if you want any~

[And into the offered box the poffins go. Look at them, Italy, in all their bready goodness and with awesome berry filling. You know you want to take them apart.]

They are...! And they come in a lot of different flavors. [And Lucas would be more than willing to share their recipes but where would be the fun in that?

But for now, Lucas is studying the pastries, eyebrows drawn together. Decisions decisions... Or not.
] ...One of each, please?

[And while Italy's eyes are on the poffin's, Lucas is drooling inwardly over the pastries. He really just wants to reach out and stuff his face but that would not be polite.]

Sure. It's really not difficult, we'd need a pot and a spoon and a lot of ingredients since we'll be making the dough ourselves. And then the berries for the filling, of course... I have the berries needed to make poffins but not the ingredients for the dough. Here... [And quickly, Lucas rattles down the list of ingredients.] Do you have all that?

[Lucas' Mom would. Sob.]

Lots of berries. [Backtracking through the region pays off so much in the berry regard.] And the berries themselves have a lot of flavor. Some are really sweet, some very bitter. Here...

[And Lucas pulls out a couple of odd-looking berries.]

They're not poisonous like this or anything so if you want to try them...

[Only the best taste for a gourmet like Italy after all.]

And there are a lot more like this one... And if you want to grow some of your own, I'd be happy to give you some berries. They only require daily watering and fertile soil. ...They grow quickly, too.

Of course. I'll give you some of the basic berries... They'll grow nicely and steadily and you will be able to experiment with the tastes for a while...

But first, I should show you how to make poffins, right?

Where's your kitchen? And maybe some aprons, it might get a little messy with all the flour and the berry juice.
