Alyssa entered the Muggle Studies classroom and smiled when she saw that the Flags of the different countries were still flying proud and high. However, instead of the coffee tables, the Professor had replaced them with long rectangular tables that had picnic baskets floating above them. Next to each table was a chair and on the table lay a chef's hat. Alyssa walked up to Professor Cerulean who was standing at the front of the classroon wearing her own neon apron and a tall chef hat. "Hello Professor Cerulean. You look nice in your apron and chef hat."Alyssa said with a smile before walking over to the vending machines and filling up her cup with Vanilla Italian Soda.

She then went over to one of the tables, put on the chef hat and tied on her apron before sitting on her chair and waited for the other students to arrive.

Evelyn entered the Muggle Studies classroom and she smiled when she noticed the professor with a Chef's hat and wearing an apron. She also noticed the long tables and the picnic baskets that were floating above them. "Hello professor!" Evelyn said, cheerfully.

Evelyn walked over to the vending machines and filled her cup with Hot Chocolate. Huh? Evelyn's smile faded when she heard the professor say that the students would have to wear an apron and the chef's hat as well..really? With a grumpy look on her face, she made her way to the front of the class and picked up an apron.

She placed her cup of Hot Chocolate on the table before she tied on her apron. She sat down and looked at the hat with the slightest hint of distaste. "Erm..Professor, is it okay if I don't put it on?" Frankly, she would look ridiculous if she put on the chef's hat.

The first thing Daichi noticed once inside the Muggle studies room were the wooden tables and the baskets floating above them. He approached one of the tables near the front and placed his school bag on top of it. He felt a bit strange because he had just turned fourteen and hearing the age he felt like he was growing up. Yes, he was going to be even MORE manly than he EVER was. At least he always thought he was manly.... Others who thought he wasn't manly and just cute were stupid hmpf!

"Morning Professor Cerulean!" he said with a wave of his hand and a smile from ear to ear before his chocolate brown dreamy eyes according to Kurumi O_o found the vending machine and remembering it from the previous lesson he went to grab a hot cup of chocolate. Returning to his table he clapped his hands in excitedment and let out a high pitched yell when hearing they should wear an apron and the hat but then quickly cleared his throat. He was fourteen now. A MAN!

Pulling out his apron from his bag Daichi couldn't help but widen his smile that he had written his older brother to bring him his TOO SHORT FOR HIS BODY apron because the last time he had used it was during the vacation and he tried to make a cake. And exploding the kitchen with the mixer in the process....ahem. He really hoped that didn't happen today.

With the mention of bringing an apron to class, Gideon guess they might actually be making stuff. Unless of course they would be eating something really messy. Either possibility was there, he thought wondering what was to come. Not having an apron in his trunk, he managed an owl to his mum who in turn managed to return the bird with one from home. A nice simple deep green one currently thrown over his bag as he walked into class.

It was much as before, the flags of multiple countries flying from the rafters and available drinks in one corner. The decor of the seating was different, almost ordinary tables for each of them to sit at. The fifth year moved to take a random seat in the middle of the classroom, raising a curious eyebrow at the floating picnic baskets and chefs hats displaced at each place.
Yeah...definantly cooking something.

"Good day professor," he greeted as he set his stuff down next to his chair, taking out some parchment and a quill and setting it on the table to be ready. Seeing her with her apron on, Gideon figured he might as well add his own, the Gryffindor slipping it over his head before tying it in back. "Now to get a drink," he mused quietly, moving once more to head to the machine, pouring himself some chai tea before returning.

When Amelia entered the classroom, she couldn't help but notice the details that were still there from the last lesson. The flags were still up, and there was still the station from which to get drinks. But now it didn't look like a coffee shop anymore, and there were picnic baskets out. As well as chef hats?

Raising her brow, Amelia found herself a seat a table. "Hello, Professor Cerulean!"

Oakey came into class very cheerfully. for a month now he hadn't had a single good luck charm on him, until well...the Ancient runes class, from that point on he just wore his Rabbit's foot around his neck.

He had gotten the notice to bring an apron to class but did not have one and did not bother to get one. As he made his way to the front of the class he grabbed a neon "kiss the cook" green apron. H would have preferred it just be a plain white apron with no silly phrases, but you have to take what you're given he supposed.

As he was about to go back and find a table to set his things he saw the Coffee Machine. moving his way across the class room yet again, he inspected each of the flavors and settled on the chai tea. Now with hot beverage in hand Oakey went back to his spot and rested the chef's hat on his head.

Feeling completed and ready for the class to begin he couldn't help but feel he had forgotten something. An integral way to begin each of his classes...but what was it?
OH! good day, Professor Cerulean. I hope all is well with you.
Right, duh! say hello to the Professor.

Kurumi had been sitting in the common room studying for OWLs like any other Saturday morning...until she had spotted Gideon leaving the common room with his book bag. Where was he going on a Saturday with his school supplies? A few moments later, a first year had walked through the common room doing the same thing. As it turned out...it wasn't a Saturday at all, but a Tuesday. When had THAT happened? Kurumi had then rushed back up to her dorm to pack her things...only to find that they were already packed. Odd.

Shrugging all this off, Kurumi had then sprinted down to the Muggle Studies classroom knowing that she was late and wearing a look of utter horror on her face. As she BURST through the door, she immediately rushed up to Professor Cerulean. "Professor! I'm so sorry I am late!" Only she wasn't late and was still early, but the Gryffindor had lost track of the time and was completely turned upside down. She then noticed that people were wearing aprons. MERLIN! Was she supposed to have brought one of those? She didn't remember reading that on the Gryffindor announcement board...

Hurriedly, Kurumi snatched up a neon purple apron from the front of the room, along with a chef hat that she had no intention of wearing, and found a seat. She opened her bag to get her pencil and notebook out when she saw that she had her apron already packed in it. Wait...when had she done that? Cheeks beat read, Kurumi made her way back to the front of the room to return the borrowed apron and slipped her Gryffindor one on and tried her best to blend in with her seat.

Annabelle walked into the classroom and saw all the supplies. She was still happy they were trying new foods from other countires. "Good morning, Proffesor Cerulean!" she said with a sweet smile. "What is with all the picnic baskets? Are we going to be eating foods outside in the courtyards?" She hoped they were eating outside.

Jory was pleased the lessons were continuing on food. He really enjoyed the previous two. Reaching the classroom, he took in the surroundings. It seemed as if they were going to cook today. "Good Day, Professor,'' he said cheerfully as he walked into the room.

Jory had not brought an apron so he grabbed one from the set in the room. Blue- his favourite colour. He found the print "Kiss the Cook" quite funny. Next, he set the chef's hat on his head. "I wonder how I look,'' he thought to himself. The Puff decided to get some plain coffee before finding a seat. He really missed the coffee his mom made him everyday when he was at home.

Laura walked into the classroom and smiled. "Hello Professor." Laura said as she sat down.

Messer was really excited for today Muggle Studies lesson. When he entered the Muggle Studies classroom, most of the setup from their last lesson was still there. The flags. Tons of single long rectangle tables. Wait! Rectangle tables? Not coffee tables? Oh well they still table anyway.

"Hello, Professor. How are you today." the young badger greeted the Professor before he went to the the vending machines and filled his cup with Vanilla Italian Soda. Messer saw the students are wearing apron. Shoot! He forgot to bring his, so he went to the table at the front of the class and grabbed one of the bright neon colors apron with "Kiss the Cook" words on it. Eek!

The professor smiled as the students filed in and said their hellos.


But she was a little confused when another student came rushing in thinking she was...Gemma cocked her right eyebrow at the usually put together Gryffie.

"O Kurumi, you are still on time...no worries..." she said sweetly before asking, "Are you feeling okay today...you don't look like yourself..." she asked the girl raising both eyebrows up...how odd that she was not herself...hadn't she seen another student in the halls acting odd yesterday...she pushed that thought out of her mind.

Once everyone was seated at a table, she raised her wand and with a flick the four baskets that had been hovering above each table landed on the tables to signal the beginning of her lesson.

She glanced out over all of the faces and then started, "Well, hello again everyone! I'm happy to see you all back and I hope you are excited as I am about our Part Two lesson on 80 Bites Around the World. This lesson we are going to actually fixing four different dishes from this side of the world." she said excitedly.

"But before we begin, let's review from last time. Can anyone share with me a dish and what country it was from that we tasted at our last lesson?" she said with a smile. With a flick of her wand, a screen rolled down from the ceiling.

OOC: Please remember to raise your hand before answering. Try not to repeat answers. Also only give one answer to give others the chance to answer. All conversations should end now...and remember Gemma is watching you...=0]

Amelia was excited now as class begun. She couldn't wait to try some more tasty dishes today! Raising her hand at the first question, she said, "We tried Poutine last class. It's basically fries with gravy and cheese curds. It comes from Canada." She thought it was delicious.

Alyssa tried to recall what dishes they had tried last lesson and then she remembered one, so she raised her hand and answered."Professor we tried the Chicken Fried Steak, which is basically steak covered in batter and deep fried. It originates from the great state of Texas in the United States."

Annabelle was trying to recall and then something just clicked in her brain. She remembered what they had. "Professor didn't last time we had something from Mexico called Sopapillas?" She asked as she raised her hand. "They were little deserts you could eat and cover them in chocolate drizzle?"

Jayden listened quietly as the other students rattled off answers to the professor's question. She had been sick during the last few classes and was happy to be back and able to catch up.

Daichi had placed his chef hat on his head the moment Kurumi RAN in to the classroom and the Slytherin giggled as she thought she had been late for class while she was actually on time. But not only a giggle escaped, a blush appeared on his cheeks as well as he remembered her pouting lips and that she had want to kiss him in cla--

Don't.Think.About.It

Daichi was glad that the Professor spoke so that she interrupted his thoughts and after listening he rose a hand in the air. "We tried Feijoada as well , Professor. I can't remember what was in it but i think it was Portuguese for Beans, right?" He didn't lower his arm but held the other one up as well as he tried to fix the chef hat on his head as it kept sliding over his forehead and had to hold it up so that it didn't cover half of his eyes.

Was there a smaller hat somewhere?

"Professor we had Ice-cream from USA didn't we." Laura didn't have any idea if she was right or not and at the minute she had her head on her desk, she wasn't feeling so well, the smell of coffee was making her feel a bit sick.

Clearly flustered and confused like a dizzy kneazle, Kurumi arranged her notebook and pencil on the table. "I'm..fine," she nodded. Besides somehow mixing her days up...and times...and not remembering packing any of her school supplies. It was just a big black gap in her memory. Maybe she needed to lay off on studying for her OWLs? Seemed like it was effecting her brain.
Kurumi arched an eyebrow as the lesson began. For someone who told them that they were not supposed to use magic in the classroom...she sure used a lot of magic. Her brow furrowed. Yes. Kurumi was judging you, Professor Cerulean, judging you and your hypocritical ways and snogging in front of your own students!

But then...Kurumi found herself confused again. Wait, had she been in that lesson? Kurumi flipped through her notes and was surprised to see that she had extensive notes. Blinking at her notebook, Kurumi slowly raised her hand. She was just going to read from her notes. "We had... clam chowder...specifically New England clam chowder from America..." That was right, yes? She had it in her notes at least...

louise walking into the classroom she put her apron on this lesson was going to be fun

Alex put on her hot pink apron and sat down. She raised her hand and said, "Professor, we had tamales from Latin America last time".

Jory raised his hand. "We tried Churrasco with Chimichurri which is from Argentina,'' he said hoping he had remembered correctly. he certainly remembered what the dish looked like and it'd tasted delicious.

Gemma shook her head at each of the students' answers. As they answered each, the answer appeared on the screen hanging from the ceiling.

She flicked her wand and the list cleared. She smiled at the students and then continued, "Okay so now lets come a little bit closer to home. Today we are going to be preparing and tasting four dishes from countries on our side of the world. " As she said this, a map of countries appeared on each of the tables in the form of a placemat.

"Take a look at your map, can you think of some dishes from any of the countries? Please share the dish and what it is and what country it is from...." she asked excitedly.

OOC: Please remember to raise your hand before answering. Try not to repeat answers. Also only give one answer to give others the chance to answer. All conversations should end now...and remember Gemma is watching you...=0]

Kurumi cocked her head to the side with each answer that her classmates gave. Why...didn't she remember any of this? It was all there on her notes, which meant that she had been there and tasted everything. Odd. She must really be stressed...

Pausing for a moment, Kurumi thought about what Professor Cerulean had just asked. She was going to just assume that our side of the world meant Europe and her hand instantly went up in the air. "There is crème brûlée from France," she offered. She wasn't sure if they were supposed to go into details or not, but she decided to go with just a little for clarification. "It's a custard base dessert topped with a layer of hard caramel."

Unless she wanted more savory dishes...but Kurumi's mind was almost always focused on desserts.
