[She's never been in a kitchen like. Ever.]

well — she knew sieglinde was of noble standing, but that doesn't mean she couldn't have hobbies...! ]
...I'll take that as a no. Hm. Well—! Maybe the library might have a recipe book we can refer to...
no subject
[Sieglinde doesn't... have any interest in learning that particular skill when she could be learning way more important things.]
The food just appears so shall we... will it to be sour roast?
