Sam: unfortunately I've got some business to deal with in the coming days, so I can't stop by to help with your cake any time soon. However, you should be able to make the cake without my help with the new ingredients opportunity. Attached a recipe from a bakery that my family uses religiously. Always a hit. Frosting might be a little tricky, but don't sweat it too much. I starred optional ingredients. As long as you have the essential ones cake would come out positive. happy baking. ps: if you still want to use the chocolate bars, cut them into chunks and mix into the batter as is like you would with cookie dough. Don't need to melt it, it'll melt in the oven and then cool. You'll have different consistency depending on if you want to eat warm or cold cake.

Thank you for sharing this and for the cooking advice.
Once ingredients are fully unlocked, I will make my second attempt.

Even though you said you would be busy, may I still stop by to deliver a slice
to get your thorough review?

of course. you can visit whenever you want. I will always make time for people that want to see me.

Thank you, and in the event the taste is still not up to par,
I can bring you a milkshake of your preference.
I at least know how to make those.
I used to fix them for my sister all the time.

[ ...but also mostly himself. ]

oh I appreciate it, milkshakes are amazing. But why are you bringing me a milkshake if the cake isn't up to par?

I imagine if the cake isn't up to par,
you would not eat more than a single bite.
The milkshake is so you don't go completely hungry.

It would be remiss of me to visit without a backup plan.

so you're trying to feed me?

Feed you good food.
Is that so unusual?
I thought it was fairly common to bring those you would like to know better occasional treats.

I think you are right but, you're the first person that's done it.

I suppose it was difficult until fairly recently to give food as gifts,
given the limited menu items.
If I had brought you more spaghetti, I would not expect much of it to get devoured
by you nor your family members.

ahhh good point. I'll be sure to return the favor.

If you wish,
but there is no immediate need.

Rather, it would motivate me to learn faster if I were not being constantly spoiled by others.

I got you! You'll def get the hang of this.

I appreciate the vote of confidence,
though you never told me what your favorite milkshake flavor is.

mint chip then vanilla or chocolate

Does it not taste like biting into a candy bar
immediately after brushing your teeth a few times to you?

haha! They don't taste the same at all to me, but I totally get what you're saying.

I will try and deliver if I find mint chip
ice cream on the ship.
With any luck, I will manage a visit before the next performance.

don't worry about it, your efforts are kind. I am truly flattered. If you want to know me better, though, you can just show up or message me. I come from high society, but it's different than the world you and the other Arias call home. Door's open, I don't bite.

Thank you, I will try to make the most sense of your invitation in the future.

Likewise, you are always welcome to visit or message me
if you want to talk or simply need the companionship.

is making the most sense of the invitation meaning you don't get why you received the invitation at all? talking does more harm than good I've found recently. but I don't mind quiet companionship.

I apologize I meant I would make the most out of
your invitation in the future.

It must be a sign I need more sleep if I am letting
so many errors pass through.

[ aka I did a typo but will pass it off as ic 😌 ]

[ uhu. ]

nothing to apologize for. you should take the time to sleep more. You're technically all on vacation even if none of you act like it.

A vacation is not how I would characterize this cruise ship at all,
but I will heed your advice and rest for now.
I need my energy for baking later.

haha me neither but that's what I was told to look at it as. Lots of free time kinda thing. looking forward to reading about your newfound game in the culinary industry, Friday.
