Thursday evening in the kitchen …  
















NEVE:
Done yet?


JESSE:
I dunno. Let’s see …
















NEVE:
Mmmmm, smells yummy. I want some.
















JESSE:
Hey Vanni, you’re still here? I thought you took off.


VANNI:
I’m getting ready to leave now. 


NEVE:
Where you going?


VANNI:
Back to the Elvin Realm for Zyfan and Phae’s
engagement festivities, remember?





















NEVE:
Oh that right, now I ‘member. Want some
mac’roni and cheese first? I made it.





















VANNI:
You made it?


NEVE:
Uh-huh. Jesse helped too - but I did most important part.


VANNI:
And what was that?


NEVE:

I sprinkle cheese on top. Now my hands smell like cheese. 
















NEVE:
… Here, wanna smell?


JESSE:
Neve, I told  you to wash your hands.


NEVE:
I forgot.


JESSE:
Get over here.





















ALESS:

S-s-something smells r-really good.
















NEVE:
Uh-huh, mac’roni and cheese. Want some?


JESSE:
It’s got to cool off first. 


ALESS:
I c-can wait.
















VANNI:
Jesse, you’re cooking dinner tonight, with Neve’s help?


JESSE:
Been doing it most nights since Herita was banished.


NEVE:
I miss H’rita.


JESSE:
You’re the only one.
















ALESS

Jesse’s t-t-turning into a gr-great cook. He m-made all
the food for Ra-Racolo’s wedding.


VANNI:
You did? I didn’t know you  liked to cook.
















JESSE:
I didnt either til I got sick of eating pizza every night. 


ALESS:

I r-r-remember that. Vanni, when you l-left for the Elvin Realm
and it as j-just us. Ra-Racolo would p-pick up p-p-pizza for us,
and sometimes subs, and b-burgers …


JESSE:

But mostly pizza. It really got old - so I took over dinner. 
















ALESS:
And he m-made us m-meatloaf, and then some sort of
b-baked chicken … and everything was d-d-delicious.





















JESSE:

It was no big deal. I watched someYouTube videos
and I always liked the cooking shows … 
















VANNI:

This is really good. Have you considered
cooking for a living?


JESSE:
You mean like flipping burgers or something?


VANNI:
No, I’m talking about a career in the culinary arts.
















ALESS:
Yeah Jesse - you c-c-could be a chef.


VANNI:
You should really think about it.


JESSE:
Hmmpf, yeah maybe …
