Everything was mixed ready to go. AJ looked to her right, and then to her left. The coast was clear. Everybody seemed to be immersed in their work so now was the time to act. She stuck her pointer finger into the mix and picked up a hunk of the fortune cookie mixture. Without waiting she popped her finger in her mouth. "Mmm..." Cookie dough was the best. Sometimes she thought it was better than when they were cooked.

The lion needed to measure out the cookies now and space them just right. The best way to measure the distance was with her fingers. Whether or not it would be the exact two inches, she couldn't be sure. Without bothering to wash her finger that she just sucked the mix off of she started ladling the cookie mix into round balls on the cookie sheet. Once it was all done, AJ stuck them in the oven. Now she had to wait. That was another thing that she was bad at. The lion couldn't have burnt cookies though. Yuck!
