Whilst mixing her own dough, Hadley was observing the students and waiting for shouts of pain or something ... Nothing yet, so far so good. Of course it wasn't like they were dealing with knives. Nothing really dangerous about bowls or spoons ... ?

After reading the instructions, Leah measured out the ingredients and put them inside a bowl. Hmm, they could work in pairs. Looking around for ~~Angel~~ someone who needed a partner, she started combining the ingredients. "Professor, do we need to clean every materials we use?" she asked, raising her hand that was not occupied and waving her other hand at the bowls and cups. If they did it was not too late to start over again - or was it?

"Your bowls and measuring spoons should already be cleaned, but if they're not, then you should clean them. Just think of this as potions; you wouldn't brew with a dirty cauldron, would you?" Fina replied to the question, with a ~~rhetorical~~ question....

Because she's allergic to sugar, she just didn't want to risk eating food with sugar in it even its just in a small amount.

She grabbed one of the aprons and put that on. And she need to wash her hand like the Professor said. She went toward the sink and washed her hands with soap and water. Hairs. Hadley mentioned they need to tie their hairs, so the first year tied her hair back in a ponytail.

Partners? They could work in partners? She looked around the kitchen to see if someone still need a partner if not she just gonna fly solo.

Well this was ... unexpected. "Some pizza dough contains sugar, others do not, so no I don't think you NEED to add sugar as some cooks will leave it out. Is there any particular reason you wouldn't want to add it?" You know, if she had a valid reason and whatnot for not being able to consume it. Medical reason or something.

Whoever thought putting Lex back in a kitchen was a good idea...wasn't thinking very clearly and seeing as she liked this placed and would be back for a snack later, she chose to surround herself with people she knew knew what they were going hence her walking over to the table her bestie was at--Lottie made good sandwiches and good pizza, this all made sense--and Grayson because she definitely knew he knew his way around a kitchen too.

Lex made good choices sometimes.

She looked between the two, grin firmly in place before asking the most important question. "So, who's making my pizza for me?" The grin might have gotten wider too. Desperation maybe? Chances were they'd have to EAT these after and well.......she kinda wanted to be able to enjoy hers......and...after that Muggle Studies OWL it didn't seem possible unless she had no part in it.

"I mean you guys don't have to but I reckon I'd just end up enjoying some of your pizza instead." At the very least help would be liked. Mhm.

Yes. We see you Alexa Cambridge. And hear you. Who's making my pizza for me? HMPH. Did she completely miss the announcement just moments ago about if you don't prepare it, you don't eat it? Observing her over with Lottie and the sly Slytherin boy, Grayson, she blinked as it seemed as if the two WERE ACTUALLY going to make it for her. OH NO! OH NO!

"Miss Cambridge. Do you need your ears cleaned? If you don't make it, you don't eat any. Those are the rules." She reminded the sixth year casually. It wasn't as if she was new student, oblivious to her methods. "Now, you're set back. Go be a good prefect and YOU get to work by yourself." Mmhm. Lotus and Grayson could work together. She did notice they were each preparing their own dough though... "Yet I'll be nice, you can use one the dough prepared by your friends, but the rest of the preparation you need to do by yourself. Or no food."

"Professor!!" Angel raised her hand. "Can't we make something really easy like a ready-meal?" Angel was totally sure she could make that because she couldn't make anything else, especially not Pizza, maybe there was a spell to make someone an Italian so she was really good at it, could she look in her book?

The boy then returning to where he had set down his belongings ready to move on.

So flour and sugar and yeast and all those other things being mentioned were needed. The Gryffindor waited until the actual recipe was posted to copy anything down so that he didn't miss anything or mix anything up.

Benny heard Angel call for Professo Hadley, the girl seemed nervous about the whole thing. He had an idea and so he approached the first year tentatively. "Hey..." he greeted quietly. "Do you want to...um...maybe partner up?" The third year didn't know why he was unsure but then this was the first real time they had talked since the willow.

Hadley was about to respond to the first year Gryffindor twin about making ready-made meals when her older housemate offered to partner with her. Pizza WAS easy though; compared to some of the other options she could have had them make. "Thank you, Ben," she noted of the third year with a brief nod.

Can I reveal a little secret to making the Pizza? My mother is Italian and she tell me that I have to put togheter few ingredients in small parts and mix with energy and the pizza dough has to rise a long time!"

A little secret? Hadley fought the urge to retort back that SHE was Italian, as were her parents and half her grandparents too. But instead, she simply listened to the girl's suggestion and frowned in confusion. UH, they were combining only a few ingredients at a time? "Yes dear, that's why we mix the water, sugar and yeast before adding the salt and the flour... only a few at a time. And only a bit of flour at a time so you don't add too much. And the dough does rise a long time... needs to rise for about forty-five minutes." So her point was.... ?

Noting several pairs and individuals had finished up - and oblivious to those who added too much (or too little) of certain ingredients, she figured it was time to move onto some discussion whilst waiting for the dough to rise. First discussion topic. "One of the always surprising ingredients, albeit its only a small amount used, is sugar. So why sugar in pizza dough?"

ooc: there's a few plausible reasons, so don't give more than one reason/suggestion, please, to give others a chance!
