Kitchen Spam - saturday morning

[The breakfast menu just got kid friendly-- and the kitchen just got a lot better secured. No little hands in sharp places, or high places, or hot places; Riddick has it locked down. He's also keeping a serious eye on the mess hall, dividing his attention between waffles and doing walkarounds.
Unfortunately, he's not quite himself. He found this pair of smoked eyeglasses... and he's been trying not to talk ever since he put them on. Fucking floods, am I right.]

He wasn't sure he liked this either, but at least Digby was here now. But why ask to leave? He didn't have a home anymore, or a father or mother. He was entirely on his own, and would have to figure out what to do on his own.
He gave a distant nod and clutched the bowl tight, staring down into the contents to try to reap some sort of comfort from it.]

[He looks up at Riddick, solemn and soulful. Asking silently what to do]
[Spam]
Date: 2013-08-11 12:46 pm (UTC)You may bake as much as you like.
-the cherries.
[His sensitive nose catches the second the filling is about to stop juicing and start burning, and he moves like a fussy Victorian cat over to the stove, sliding the pan off the burner without sloshing it, turning that burner off, stirring the pan with a swirl before putting it on a cold burner.]

Date: 2013-08-11 12:52 pm (UTC)I am using precisely the amount of sugar in the recipe, because I will make it too sweet or too sour otherwise. I have not mastered sugar, yet.
[He offers it as confession, a little weakness, so that Ned feels like he's got a handle on him. He hopes.]

Date: 2013-08-11 12:54 pm (UTC)...I can...?

Date: 2013-08-11 02:12 pm (UTC)The sugar's sticking to the bottom; you need to keep stirring or it'll solidify and burn.

Date: 2013-08-11 02:18 pm (UTC)You have a good arm for a young man.

Date: 2013-08-11 02:20 pm (UTC)It's the same motion over and over. You just get used to it.

Date: 2013-08-11 02:31 pm (UTC)[Riddick hovers, a little concerned about the pan, but he has to respect expertise. Ned started earlier than he'd known.]
A lattice on top of the cherry pie? I was not accustomed to pies in my youth and have some way to go toward learning the traditional forms.
[Spam]
Date: 2013-08-11 02:32 pm (UTC)Roll it out to ten inches across and start cutting it in strips about an inch and a half wide.
[Spam]
Date: 2013-08-11 02:35 pm (UTC)Why a lattice on cherry but not apple?
Speaking of other pies, how long have we got left on the one in the oven?
[Spam]
Date: 2013-08-11 02:41 pm (UTC)Nine minutes and twelve seconds.
[An odd transformation seems to be taking Ned over; at first demure, quiet, and of little consequence, now he's fully in his element and taking charge of the kitchen]
[Spam]
Date: 2013-08-11 02:47 pm (UTC)Why not a full crust on the cherry, then? Here, these strips are done, have you already put the main crust in the tin?
[Spam]
Date: 2013-08-11 02:48 pm (UTC)....Do you...want a full crust?

Date: 2013-08-11 02:53 pm (UTC)That's how my mom made them.
