| ♥ Mrs. Itachi Uchiha™ & MAJNOO! : Bleach & Kyo & Natsume ♥ [ Maxh!Jesh ] The crushed oat grains had come to a 'boil.' Technically, they weren't oat grains now, more of a chunky!paste-like mix. Gold, as she lowered the heat underneath her cauldron, wondered if it would be a good idea to add sugar to the contents of her cauldron.
Or perhaps she needed to add a good amount more than usual. Maybe seven or eight cups. That sounded like a bit of a risk though and, despite the fact that Gold usually took a HEAP of risks when she baked [that, in her opinion, was the fun of the skill and task, and everything related to it] she decided to play it safe, right now. Most likely because she had never considered oat jam before, and the thought was still a pretty new one.
It was like unfamiliar territory.
Soo.
She was going to tread carefully. Six cups of sugar, 'twas. Excito Orbis.
Stir, stir, stir. Gold had nothing to do while the stirrer worked away, so she chose to see what everyone else was up to. Most of the other students were still making the jam, though one or two had done so, and were now transferring the contents of their cauldrons into jars. Yumm. Gold flicked her wand, brought the heat up a notch, and eyed what was now inside her cauldron. It was like a thick syrup. Oat!sugar syrup.
Would it taste good?
She could only wonder, right now.
Carefully but firmly, Gold picked up a big, wooden spoon, and started to ladle some of the oat jam into it. Text Cut: Professor Dodson Quote:

He beamed, picking one of the fruits and tossing it in Patroclus' direction. Well, he AIMED in that direction. He wasn't very good at throwing.. ZOMG!
She could have a little nibble, right now!
There was a little problem, though -- and the problem was that the strawberries that had been a result of her magic, were biiiig. Gold couldn't possibly 'nibble' them, here. It would look ridiculous! Then again, who was she to judge that? Fun ought to be fun.
So Gold, having cleaned up her cauldron after having made the oat jam, picked up one of the large strawberries and, after giving it a quick rinse, bit into it. Yummm. Gold wanted to eat all of it, right away. If only she had some chocolate. Maybe she ought to take up Professor Dodson on that lemon!offer, and squeeze some lemon juice on top of this strawberry, for a change. Hehehe. Gold took another bite, as she watched everyone still working away. This was turning out to be an amazing lesson.
Strawberreh!nibble. Quote:

Gold beamed at her bestie. "I think it tastes heavenly, but that could be just me," she laughed, words honest.
Oh, she had an idea!
"Want to swap, so we can both have a taste of each other's jam?" Gold asked, as she unscrewed the lid that fitted snugly on her jar of strawberry jam, and held it out for Brody to take. Once she had stuck a clean spoon in it, of course. Hehehe.
