He wondered if Ethan had spent plenty of times practicing burning the silly little gossip magazine. "I grabbed some extra mini bowls so it would be easier to separate the eggs into yolks and whites," he said as he picked up an egg. He tapped it against the side of the bowl, cracking it, and then pressed lightly on the shell to cause it to break it in half. Scooping up the yolk in the egg shell, he let the egg whites lazily drip into the small bowl. Then he did this again with the other egg. With the two egg shells remaining, he quickly discarded them into the closest trash bin and washed his hands.

Next, he measured out half a teaspoon of vanilla and almond extract. Then he measured out the correct amount (3 tablespoons) for the vegetable oil. Placing all of those into the bowl that had the egg yolks in it, he quickly scooped up 8 tablespoons worth of flour and then placed them in that bowl. Eying the recipe for the correct amount of the remaining ingredients that he should put in, Simon began measuring and pouring them into the bowl. Soon enough, he had added the water and had picked up the spoon.

The boy began stirring the mixture, applying as much force as needed to move the dough around. Phew. His arm was growing tired. There must have been an easier way to do this, right? He smirked and then quickly pulled out his wand and cast a charm that enabled the spoon to continue stirring the mixture around.

Once everything was mixed in well enough (or what he deemed well enough), he turned to Ethan. "Alright, the next step is...putting the batter onto the cookie sheet a couple of inches apart?"

After setting up the cookie sheet with some parchment paper (so the cookies wouldn't burn), Simon grabbed two teaspoons and handed one to his mate. "I figured the two of us working together on this step could speed it up, Holmes. We have to put them at least two inches apart," Then Simon set off to work. Scooping and placing onto the cookie sheet.

There was a reason why Simon was dubbed ‘The Chef’, right? “Ladies and Gentlemen…and House elves. I present to you Exhibit A.” he said as he pointed at Simon as he did his thing. Separating the yolks from the egg whites, measuring the flour like a pro…Ethan can go on and on and on about how fantastic his Watson is. Ethan would open his mouth to say something, such as offering his help, but Simon was too fast with all of the preparation and mixing. The blond boy just decided to shut his mouth and observe.

Uh huh.

He can do that too you know. Maybe in the next 100 years?

Then a tablespoon was handed to him. Right. Placing the batter onto the baking sheet. He can do that, mhm. Scooping out the sticky stuff from the bowl, Ethan then placed it on the tray carefully. He didn’t want to upset his best friend by doing a sloppy job, yeah? “Two inches apart. Got it.” If you actually want a precise partner, Ethan’s the man for the job.

Two freaking inches.
