cut these carrots (Sophie and Sawyer)

Sophie heard the call for dinner assistance; yes there was cooks here but doing it yourself was informative. Especially as the orphanage would need a cooking crew for the Thanksgiving dinner. After that it wouldn't be long till Christmas came round. Sophie rolled into the kitchen proper again wearing a red dress. Just being here changed the way she dressed and there had been some nice dresses round her size donated. She just needed to learn how to sew a little to make the adjustments.

"So what are you cooking along with the carrots?" she posed and seen Nina being rocked. She was getting bigger and her first Christmas would be special. She also seen the first pile of chopped carrots and rolled over to that worktop. However it was too tall and she had to go to plan B. That was use her crutches to stand up and stay like that while she was doing this chopping.

She did feel she was getting better but it was taking a long time. She could walk on her crutches but it was slow and running was still out of the question.

"I wanted to do this trick that i seen on tik tok. Carrot bacon had been the first thing that came to mind and then I thought that I just wanted carrots. I need to learn to cook more and it does not seem like it would be too hard to do so here I am and let me tell you learning to cook is so muc harder than it seems but i am not giving up."

He waved to Sophie and as long as he did not have to eat any of this he would be okay. "Skipped over bananas Carmen?" he was simply asking because he would think that one should start with bananas but truthfully what did Sawyer know. Not much at all so he was just going to be mostly quiet until she explained a little bit more.

"If you're thinking about solid food for Nina pureed carrots are a good start. Then use it as a base for your own baby food by adding other puree vegetables and a pureed cooked sausage. For dessert try frozen yogurt with some fruit in it. Also something with bananas" she suggested. A yogurt would be a good breakfast in its own right for a baby.

"We could try and prep some of that today if you wanted" she added. She was more used to cooking for people with teeth but this still was cooking that they could get involved in. "Sawyer if you could find the blender we could do this and there should be something like empty jars or plastic containers; at least before the recyclable refuse is collected" she added.

Perhaps there was a plan after all.

"If you do not know what it looks like say that," she said as she took a minute and shook her head. "Cooking is a skill that we all need stop gendering it so much but yes Sophie that sounds like a good idea." She was going to have to go to therapy again soon but dr shaw had let her out of the hook for the most part since she was doing as he said "so well."

He nodded. "I mean we always find a way to make everything work so this, whatever we want to do today and learn and do for the holiday season does not seem like it would be too hard for us to follow up which makes me feel good about the situation over all."

He could no longer deny their friendship that was between the three of them. "We need cookies," He had only ever seen cookies in that tin until he had gotten to the orphanage. "I'm going to bake them."

Sophie had no problem with making cookies. She did that from time to time and not a regularly as she would like. So once they had the blender they could start this idea.

“That sounds like a good idea Sawyer” she said to him sounding cheerful and confirming that with Carmen. Another question has been asked and she replied “holiday shopping? I need presents for you, Sawyer, Nina and the gang but that’s really it. Unless we’re going to get decorations in as well”.

Something practical or nice would do as together they made up a little family. “We could go out when we’re all free”. Sawyer, Carmen, Nina and herself for now and they’d need to get a move on.

The first thing was to cut up more carrots and sweet potatoes as she did this. Chunks were fine as they’d be blended anyway.
