Lou’s eyebrows raised at the bit of knowledge Paloma proceeded to share with him about nuts and dried fruit. Now, there was something he wanted to keep in mind; Merlin knew with his late night skating sessions with Jun lately, the boy wasn’t getting the sleep his body craved anymore. And it made staying alert in classes a little more challenging.
Louis raised an eyebrow at the next instruction. Imagine the final product? He wasn’t even sure what they were making. He knew it was candy, but he’d never heard of this type of candy before. Soooo… he’d just try his best. Closing his blue eyes, the Gryffindor tried his best to imagine whatever would result from this array of ingredients.
The image in his mind became clearer as Paloma began describing the most delicious, mouth-watering candy he could possibly imagine. WAS SHE TRYING TO KILL HIM? The boy could almost feel his stomach growl at the imaginary food. He wasn’t even hungry! Opening his eyes, Louis turned to Paloma, who looked deep in concentration. “Can we start? Please?” He just wanted to eat already.
Looking at Lou with his eyes closed and imagine the candy was hilarious, and more it turned as he enthusiastically motioned them to began the work.
"Alright, then...pour the two liters of milk into the pot, and immediately pour the sugar...the whole kilo." There she was specifying the treat was to be really...really mouthwatering sweet.
With that instruction, she took one of the wooden spoons and gave it to him, then took one for her.
"It is time to mix this whole thing, turn it into a paste as we stirr...." She said, showing him to do so counter-clockwise.
"And in this case, since we can use magic...you can give it a charm..." She raised her eyebrow, thinking on how to tell Lou that they had to wait...
Two hours.
*gulp*
