i don't celebrate it since i lost my brother , ok ? but i will share it with you. february 10.
i don't know if i will. it's a little hard to keep track of time with everything that happens here. but maybe. all this snow and the cold makes me feel like something is missing. like rugelach. bonus question: do you want rugelach ?
no offense but i don't think you would be very good at surprise parties
( just a joke,, see, she's comfortable with him. )
i am planning to make some , yes! i couldn't find raisins , but my roommate and i made some fruit jams recently and i've preserved some for exactly this reason. i got cocoa powder , too. maybe i'll get lucky and find chocolate bars in one of the diffusion zones.
do you have a preference for fillings ?
( ok maybe she's excited about preparing these treats and getting to share with someone who gets it. )
but... this response comes a little delayed, as she hadn't expected him to be on board with 'participating' in making them. it takes her a few seconds to turn the idea around in her head, to think, i'd really like that. )
give me a few days to get the recipe written down. i'm not good with the measurements , so my roommate will help me with that. would you like to come over ? we have a small baking oven. i could go to yours if it's easier.
[ Psh, his feelings are fine. It's nice to just be a little silly sometimes. ]
I can also help in anything you need. Sourcing ingredients, maybe? And your place will do just fine. Especially as I haven't thought to get myself a baking oven.
if you happen to find actual chocolate bars between now and when we meet , that would be the best. i live with a lot of people so don't be surprised if you see a mess. i'll find a time when they're not around so it's not awkward or anything.
( she sends him the name of the motel she's staying in and the room number, along with some general directions. it goes without saying, but she hopes he lets her know ahead of time when he plans to show up—outside of this one baking adventure they'll have in the future. )
yes. i'm going to see if i can find a few more ingredients in the holiday market people have been talking about. so maybe at some point after that.
i'm afraid my boss beat you to it. she asked me and another employer to go with her to help set up on the first day. the thrift store is having a spot to sell things.
unless you go on a different day , then i'll hitch a ride with you.
send me a text when you're there and i can let you know if i'm busy or not. or you can always stop by to buy something. it won't be rugelach , but i'll be baking other things to sell. one joolie a piece.

second one then: what about hannukkah ?
( do you celebrate that? )
no subject
I've not celebrated Hanukkah in a long time. Or any other holiday, for that matter. But I'm not opposed to it. Will you be celebrating?

[ He hasn't celebrated since losing his own parents either, so he gets it. ]
I wouldn't say no. Haven't had any literally in decades. Are you making them yourself?

Pick whichever you like. We could make different ones, too. I think I'd like to participate, if you wouldn't mind another pair of hands.

That's alright. You don't have to worry so much about that, Wanda.
no subject
and fine. i'm just making sure.
did i ever give you the address of where i'm staying ?
no subject
Let me know when you've worked everything out, and we'll pick a date that works for us both, alright?
no subject
yes. i'm going to see if i can find a few more ingredients in the holiday market people have been talking about.

We could go together, if you like.

I'll visit your stand. It's alright if you're busy after, I can still look around the market and see if I can help with finding us that chocolate.
no subject
