Now Leo was going to be baking some gingerbread men! "That sounds delicious," she said, setting up a few spots down from him. Perhaps she would start something else, so as to help some of the younger students. Looking at the recipe,she saw the recipe to Christmas shortbread and saw most of the ingredients there already.


Leo was rummaging through the recipes on the hunt for the gingerbread men one by the time that he was joined by his blond colleague. Looking up he beamed merrily "Merry Christmas Beatrice. I'm feeling splendid. How about yourself?" It was hard not to be happy Leo thought since he soon was going to be mixing up ingredients and enjoying every minute of it. Watching Beatrice take up a work bench a few spots down from him he grinned in response. "That's the plan, what do you plan to bake?"

SPOILER!!: Ava

Once she'd done with her 'fun mission', Ava innocently greeted the two adults who might gonna bake some gingerbread men. "Mr. Kittridge! Professor B! You both look great and merry Christmas!" A small talk would disguise her mischief, right? "Are you two gonna decorate some gingerbread men?" The frosting was ready to be used by the way, hehehe.


"Merry Christmas Ava!" Leo greeted the lioness with big beam as the first year girl joined him and Beatrice in the kitchen. Nodding he said "As a matter of fact I'm planning to make and decorate gingerbread men. You are welcome to help me if you want? I see you've already found the frosting so that's a start. We need more than one colour though. Can you see if the elves has got some more colours than just white frosting?" Leo wanted the cookies to look festive so they needed more than one coloured frosting.

SPOILER!!: Prof Paul

He stood next to Leo and tried to remember how in the world to make gingerbread cookie cough...hmph. Where were the elves?


"Merry Christmas Paul!" Leo greeted as the herbology professor came over to sit by him. "Can you start to melt butter and then brush it out on 2 baking trays?" Baking was more fun when you did it together with someone so Leo didn't mind putting Paul to work. Fetching a bowl and all the ingredients he needed Leo started the process of making the dough by blending everything together with the help of his wand. "How come you decided to stay at Hogwarts over Christmas?" Or was that a too private question?

SPOILER!!: Prof Airey

Then that would be used as a door stop in the astrophysics laboratory should an experiment go wrong and flow through ventilation become a necessity.


If it was anyone that would go extreme on Christmas it'd be Airey. So Leo wasn't very surprised when Ariey made his entrance in the kitchen looking like Santa's brother with beard and everything. Smiling merrily Leo said "Merry Christmas Airey! Paul and I are making gingerbread men. What is your favourite Christmas cookie or dessert?"

SPOILER!!: Paulina

"Merry Christmas everyone," she said as she stepped inside. She wasn't late was she? From the look of things they had barely gotten started before she arrived.


The next student to arrive in the kitchen was one of Meredith's house. Beaming he said "Merry Christmas Paulina! I'm sure Prof Beatrice wouldn't mind some help with her bake." Since Christmas baking was supposed to be something you did together with others. It was more fun that way and raised the holiday spirit. Now they just needed to start singing carols.
