:::Cora took the scewer she'd prepaired before, and eagerly dipped it into the chocolate before taking a bite:::
Mmmm! This is like the chocolate you gave me in that container...but it's in a liquid form. And so warm!
:::She went for another apple with her scewer, unable to wait for another dip:::

I'm glad you agree. Really, you should try some of the other sauces too. Each tastes different.
*Alex dips another apple slice*

:::Cora took his advice and dipped an apple slice into a yellowy-orange sauce that turned out to be the cheddar. She tried it without smelling it first, without knowing what to expect:::
Oh... ::She made a bit of a face::: I don't like this one as much as the others...

The only way to know what you will like, is to try it. Now you know. Excuse me. I'll be right back.

Mm hm...
:::She nods and watches him go. When he's no longer a distraction, she goes back to dipping happily into the chocolate:::

Ready for the next item on tonight's menu?

There is more to eat?

A lot more. Let's start with the Plum-Nectarine Ambrosia. Its kind of like a fruit salad
*Alex lifted the tops off to reveal a bowl of tender cooked fruit, chilled in sauce and garnished with toasted coconut shavings. The serving was fairly small, but Alex had a feast planned, and had adjusted the portions accordingly*

...fruit salad..?
:::She pondered. Cora had an idea by looking at it that salad meant...well, that. And that whatever it was was made up of different kinds of fruit:::
Oh... what does it taste like?

Taste it. That's the best way to find out. And tell me what you think.

Cora.. Its a bit messy. I'd use a spoon or a fork.

Oh, yes. The other eating utensiles. :::She'd forgotten about those. She picked up the one resembling Alex's and had a shaky start, but got the hang of it quick enough. Much like the first time she used eating utensiles:::
:::She got a bite into her mouth:::
Mmm! This is wonderful, Alex! What kinds of things are in this?

Lets see..... Plums, nectarines, bananas, applesauce, coconuts, and nuts. Do you really enjoy it? I like it, myself.

Yes, this is very good...!
:::She spooned it up happily, trying hard to remember to take breaths. She managed to ask as well:::
And those are all kinds of fruit too? Like apples? There thousands of kinds weren't there...?
:::As a shadow of herself she remembered not caring that there were so many varieties when she studied history... but thinking on it now, she wondered how in the world she could be so ignorant:::
