Winter months were always dreary, especially if it meant being stuck inside to get away from the cold. Sure, some might not mind it, but others did. Luckily, there was someone around. Someone who had made it her mission to get people to smile and be happy.

That someone was Princess Peach.

Maybe you'd come for a snack, maybe you just wanted a quiet place to eat and read. Regardless, when you entered the dining hall, Peach was there, decked out in her finest, and she'd commandeered the space. There was pink everywhere. Ribbons, tablecloths, curtains, you name it. She was brewing pots of tea in elegant china, and she had plenty of blends to choose from. Plates were filled with cookies and cakes, that she'd spent hours baking herself. "Welcome!" she would greet people with a smile. "Please, come and have a seat! The party's just starting!"

"Excellent point," Turing concurred. "I'm so used to being given the runaround that it seems like it's the only option! Hm, perhaps I need to restart a few of my settings, it's not like I'm in investigative mode right now..." they then trailed off before they started spouting out science-y jargon.

Instead, they turned their attention to the different pastries - it would be a shame to overlook all of them, and rude to boot! "Did you make all of these yourself, Peach?" they asked, "This is impressive! For once, I wish I had taste buds so I could try them all."

"Well just remember," Peach said with a warm smile, "we're all in this together! And we're going to help each other, and get all of us back home!"

She clapped her hands together eagerly at Turing's question. "Why yes! Yes I did!" she beamed. "I was up all night baking, but it was well worth it, I think!"

"Wow! It really shows!" Turing remarked, eyeing over all of the different baked goods. She really was taking advantage of her clock cycles!

"I've never really cooked anything before," they continued, looking a little bashful. "I'll chalk it up to not needing to eat myself. Don't get me wrong, I've read dozens and dozens of cookbooks and recipe blogs on the mesh, so I know the most basic and the most advanced terms, but...knowledge and application are two different things. I guess if I put my mind into it, I could boil water, but that's about everything I know how to do."

"That's the difference between knowledge and practice," Peach reminded them with a smile. "And if you'd like, I'd be happy to help you practice! It'd be fun to teach a new friend how to cook, I think."

"Really? I'd like that!" Turing exclaimed, smiling wide at the princess. "There's no reason not to learn a new skill! Even if I can't properly taste whatever I make myself...still. I suppose you would be able to tell me honestly what needs work with my cooking, yes?"

[royalmushroom]

"I'll certainly try!" Peach said, clapping her hands together. "I think it would be a lot of fun to try and teach you! I've never really taught someone else how to cook before... It'll be a learning experience for us both!"
