What seemed like only moments after she’d finished sprinkling the garlic salt onto her crust, Professor Hadley had spoken again, discussing the existence of pizzas without sauce and various other little sets of instructions. Nothing had really come as a surprise. They had to add sauce, cheese and toppings, plus a nametag. Aside from the nametag part, it was all logical when she imagined people made pizzas, and the nametag made sense when they were going to have to identify which pizza was theirs. “We’re using regular tomato sauce this time?,” she asked, raising her hand. “Some pizzas use other kinds of sauce, don’t they?” She thought she remembered some that used pesto, or white sauce.
Distracted, she hadn't heard Lily's question the first time and it took a moment or two to realize the girl asked anything at all. "Hm? Yes, yes, plain tomato sauce this time. But yes, you can use other kinds of sauce on pizza."

"Scourgify," the second year said absent-mindedly at her work area, cleaning up some flour, and thought what her Head of House would say about her creation.
Did she just hear what she thought she heard? And from one of her own too... and not a first year. Frown. "Leah, did you not hear? No magic to clean up. Now. Clean up again - the muggle way." She sighed, flicking her wand inconspicuously as she returned the flour and dirty bowls and such to the second year's work area. She let them use one water spell and now they thought they could the cleaning spell too....

He saw as Hadley instructed one of her students to clean up the muggle way. That had probably been what she'd wanted all along, but he stared at the two bowls, measuring tools, and stirring spoons and dreaded the familiar feeling of washing dishes. From a single-parent household in a muggle district, Cutty knew how to do this. He gathered up the smaller tools he'd used and placed them in the bowls, which he had stacked. Locating clean linens, he grabbed a kitchen rag and wiped down the surface on which he had been working. It took sooo much more than a single stroke before it even looked clean. When it was finally free of flour, spilled oil and stray pizza sauce, he carried his dishes over to the sink, pre-rinsed them and scrubbed them with a sponge. Cutty ran them under water to rinse them clean and grabbed another clean, dry linen to dry them. He only had 15 minutes before the Pizzas would be done. He figured he'd better do what he needed to do.



Initially, something Hadley said had caused Cutty to freeze in place. She was going to try their pizzas. Still carrying one of the bowls he was drying, he approached the Muggle Studies Professor. "Professor Hadley, would it be possible to grade my pizza without tasting it? Maybe by texture and the way it smells? Mine fell on the floor, you see. But I didn't want to have to wait another 45 minutes for new dough. I was hoping no one would notice." He lied like breathing, but she was NOT ingesting his potion. NOT allowed. That was for specific purposes and he'd already potioned enough Professors, thank you.
............................................

o.O

That was NOT something she expected to hear.

"Cutty, I never said I was tasting them all." No, she'd feed her husband the ones that didn't look right. She shook her head. "But no worries; Zander's fell on his head and I'm pretty sure that my immune system is one of the strongest at Hogwarts so I doubt you'll have anything to worry over. So yes, I do still want a sample, but I may or may not be tasting it." Really, it was true about the immune system; like when 90% of Hogwarts fell victim to the aging ailment, she avoided it. Though unfortunately she got caught up with the ice cream dilemma two terms prior, but since then she'd been amazingly healthy.

"I'll be fine." she insisted again, as she glanced at the time.



"Alright, pizza time!" Hmm, she should probably do this? Using the pizza peel/spatula, she carefully opened the oven and peeked in to look at it. "Mm, they smell amazing." And she laid each cooked pizza carefully on the clean work areas. They could find their own pizza - not like they weren't labeled.

"Like I said, I'll need a sample from each. And everyone is welcome to have a sample of mine..." Barbecued sausage and jelly slugs, what could be better? "You may trade slices with friends if you'd like as well, just when you're done, again, clean up."
