"You are a man grown, Samouel Gareth," oh ocean save her she sounds so very like her mother though her mother never needed to have the cooking talk with her, "and a free mage. You will need to learn to fend for yourself. What happens when you are out on your own in the world with your own little home? You will not have others to cook for you then, unless you seduce someone into making all your meals but then you will have to do all the cleaning up since that's equitable." Sam the pot boy, she can just picture it. Although Kirk and Sam? Well, she'll need to dig deeper into that when she can.

Alas no tears. Araceli will have to spice up her own sauce from her own stash.

"Tama - Korrin's grandmother - she cooked for everyone and most of it was fish. Kas fell asleep at the table, I could barely move by the time I was done. All of it is good, I didn't get eel, I don't know your opinions on eel. Kirk can vouch for all of them since he definitely ate everything here at Tama's dinner."
