Bab 168: Cake!

Kris saw that Lena already had all the ingredients on the table.

"Ok.. let's get started." Lena spoke. "It's not that hard.. just follow the recipe."

She handed him a cake recipe that was originally Aunt Mary's. He looked at it. It seems as simple as boiling eggs.

"So.. we will make it together until you can make one yourself."

"By myself?" Kris asked.

"Yeah. Your cake for your mom should be fully made by you."

"Ok."

Lena and Kris measured the ingredients together. The first few times, Kris messed up teaspoon and tablespoon measurements. They had to start over with the dry ingredients. She did not allow him to mix them the next time until she double-checked that everything was the correct measurements.

Lena said that hard work and more love into making a cake makes it more special. Although she has a mixer, she told Kris to mix the batch by hand with a whisk. While he was mixing, she prepared the ingredients for making the frosting.
