"Scented candles?" Amnity asked curiously. Scented candles, that sounds weird. Candles that smell? She shook her head, then placed the groceries on the kitchen table. "Well...I'm going to start cooking dinner. I'll show you how to cook Melanie."

"Scented candles are candles with essense of different scents, like vanilla, green tea, honey, and so on. It soothes people's nerves." She moved to the kitchen. "Ok, so what do we do first?"

"Chicken Marsala." Amnity said simply. She had already fried up the pan, her apron tied tightly around her waist. She took the Marsala wine and poured it onto the pan, and a pillar of fire erupted from it as a response. "We can start by chopping the mushrooms up after the pan heats." The soldier smiled, taking a knife and skillfully wielding it in her hands. "It's easy, I'll help."

"Chopping mushrooms, I can do." She took a knife and professionally chopped the mushrooms. "It doesn't take much to chop things. What's next?" She smiled, excited.

Amnity smiled, scooping all of the chopped mushrooms into a pot. She then took out a real cutting board and took the chicken out from her grocery bag. "Now for the poultry, how do you cut it?" She asked, handing her her cleaver knife and setting the chicken out on the board. "I want to see how you cut it." She smiled encouragingly to her, then motioned her to try it.

"Do you want the bones with it or just the meat?" she asked with a smirk, knife in hand, poised for cutting. "I don't know if you need the bones with it or not. Sometimes it might mess up the whole dish without bones."

((Welcome back at least. biggrin ))
Amnity scratched her head. "Well...Have you ever had Chicken Marsala before? The chicken breast is supposed to be without skin or bones, just the raw meat. It adds thickness to the dish. It's better that way and it's easier to cook..."

"Just meat, got it." She took the knife and very swiftly made some slices. It was over within 2 seconds. She put down her knife. The second she did that, the meat, bone, and skin fell apart. The skin surrounded the meat, and the meat in turn, surrounded the bones. "How's that?" she asked with a closed-eye smile.

Amnity came back with a nice big bowl of flour and set it on the table counter. She smiled and nodded. "Good, now just cut the chicken breast. That's basically what we're going to use. You can help me roll them up in the flour."

"Cut the breast into strips? Is there a cookbook with this somewhere? I like to be specific, so I don't mess up, but I hate having to ask you so many questions... sorry about that." she said with a laugh. She started cutting the chicken slowly, slow enough so that Amnity can stop her before messing up the dish.

Amnity shrugged and patted Melanie on the back. "No...There isn't actually. But you don't need one. Following a recipe by the book isn't as special if you were to cook it yourself." Her smile was encouraging. "You're doing fine."

She smiled wholeheartedly. There was that warm feeling again. She finished cutting the chicken and put down the knife. "Thanks. Now how do we flour the chicken?"

Amnity took a wide bowl and put flour in it. She then took a piece of chicken and began rolling it in the pan of flour. "Just like this, don't be scared to get your hands a little dirty." She smiled, then motioned for her to try.
