Of course. Preparing food together is a universal constant what settles the soul.
Ah, I was thinking to write down recipes best I can, but I don't know if a food wrapper would work so well for that. I might look into plastic somehow...
['I wouldn't know.' is the thought that springs to mind, but it's not entirely true. She's had a peeler and a bowl of vegetables thrust at her plenty of times. Been drafted into folding Chinese dumplings.
(She liked that. It was nice getting all the folds to look right.)
The moments were fleeting, but she can't deny they exist. She can't deny it was nice.]
Chicken and dumplings is an old favorite. My brothers asked for that one about as often as we had chicken to eat.
My best friend's Ma was from Trini, and she taught me how to make Pelau chicken and pigeon peas. Liked that one too, though mine ain't half so good as hers.
I like paella too.
And yeah, I know, but I like the feeling of having something in my hands. Something real. Just seems impersonal somehow to use the interface.
Well, I'd suppose they're fairly specific to regions and times if I had to guess? Food changes as folks do. We don't hardly keep up with trends five hundred years ago, neither.
What's origami? If you don't mind my asking.
( it didn't come to america until the fifties, an' it weren't like alabama was particularly up on trends comin' from the japanese anyhow. )
[It's also just as likely she's never heard of them because her views on food are still somewhat limited. It's easy to assume the problem is her most times.]
Maybe. But I imagine some things stick around too. Make them for me sometime?
It's folding paper into different shapes. I'll show you.

She didn't think about this.]
Pasta? I guess whatever vegetables are seasonal too.

Date: 2020-01-09 01:18 am (UTC)Do you think you could show me how to make them too? If you have the time?
I've found a few food carts with wrappers that are close enough to paper. At least for what I use paper for.

What's your favorite thing to cook?
There is a note app in the neural interface.

Date: 2020-01-10 04:39 am (UTC)I get what you mean. I like it since I can sign and my hands aren't held up by a phone, but it misses something.
I guess it's one reason I've been making a lot of origami things. Just to have something.
