|  I'll finish this up for us, Jess. Jimbo will set his turtle loose on you. { The Farley } "That's trademarked, don't use it."

"I know what it says, I've been making these Butterfly Cakes since I was three." She said to him with a small grin. She'd chosen the easiest and most pretty looking cakes in the book intentionally. That way she'd be able to focus on the magic.
She watched Jimbo put all the ingredients in the bowl, and then said the next spell, "Locomotor Spoon!" and motioned in circles, mixing the cake mix together.
When it was done, she muttered "Finite!" and caught the bowl, handing it to Jimbo, "You can pour the mix in the bowl; I'll decorate them when they're baked." Oh, alright fine. He'd back off. Excuse him for trying to do things right. Geez. Didn't have to get snippy. He grinned back at her and grabbed the bowl, pouring it into the muffin tray.
He placed the tray in the oven to bake and took it out when it was ready. Once they were cooled, Jimbo handed Monty the buttercream so she could decorate like she wanted. They ended up looking really cute, to be honest. Trust Monty to pick a cute cupcake to bake. Grabbing one, he stuffed it in his mouth. "Mmm! We did a good job, Monty!" He grinned at her and held up his hand. "High five!" Quote:

Let's take a few minutes to clean up, then you'll be dismissed," she announced to the class.
With a little swish and flick of her wand, Lexi levitated a stack of paper trays around the room. "Go ahead and take a paper tray to put your cupcakes on. ...and yes, this means you can have all your cupcakes, though I don't recommend eating them all at once. Maybe...have one of yours then trade with a friend?" she continued. "There's also a new addition to the Charms classroom this year. It's called Molly Weasley's Charmed Kitchen, and you're free to use it when you'd like to just practice or when you're hungry for a treat!" she explained. The little kitchen had been one of the first things Lexi had set up when she was moving into the castle a few months ago. It was a cute little kitchen and one that Lexi just adored. "I'll be in and out of the kitchen in between classes, so you're likely to see me there, too...you know, in case you have a question or need someone to test your products." ...and Lexi did like to test baked products. Especially cupcakes. "Don't forget to check the oven you used and make sure it's turned off!" she advised. Again, Tate definitely wouldn't take too well to them burning down the castle. "Once your work area is clean and you've gathered all your cupcakes, you're free to go. Check the bulletin board on the wall outside my office---your homework will be posted shortly after class." OOC: I'd like to take a little moment to thank everyone who attended my very first lesson. It meant a lot to me to have you all here! Points will be keyed in a few days, and the homework will up sometime tonight or tomorrow. 
Awww, YES! They get to keep them. Grinning, Jimbo took a paper tray and filled it with the cupcakes they had just made. He was not sharing. Nuh uh. Just Monty and him would be eating these. No one else. Jimbo was a greedy boy when it came to cupcakes. He shared other pastries and food, but not cupcakes. Especially not these. These were awesome. The only reason he was even sharing them with Monty was because she made them too. Otherwise, he would have stuffed them all down his throat already.
"Come along, Monty." he said, grabbing his things AND the tray. It was a bit difficult, but he wouldn't let go of the cupcakes. He'd have to check the homework and remember it instead of writing it down. Unless Monty wrote it down for him. Or something. But he was not putting down the tray. He would not risk someone stealing his cupcakes. Or, er, Monty as his' cupcakes. Yush.
