Hello, you've reach the mailbox of Petra Ral. Leave me a message, and I'll write back! And then you turn it off, like this?

This is good, thank you for making it for me. [The meat is good quality, as are the vegetables. Petra hasn't had a meal like this in some time.]

You said your grandmother made this where you're from?

[copia]

You're welcome! I'm really glad you like it.

[ She nods as she finishes chewing some rice before speaking. ]

She does, yes. She has her own vegetable garden in our backyard, so a lot of our dishes involve homegrown produce.

Is there a favorite food or meal you might make here?

[vertrauen]

She must be proud of it. I guess that means you lived out in the country?

[Or at least not in the middle of the city. Petra's still figuring out suburbia.]

There was a spice cake my father taught me to make... maybe I can try making that here, too.

[copia]

Right! We're several hours away from Sternbild City.



[ Her eyebrows go up slightly as she continues eating. ]

Spice cake? What's in it?

[vertrauen]

[Wait... what was in it again, exactly? She had it written down somewhere.]

Cinnamon, I know, and clove. It's mostly a way to show off all the spices you could afford, but it's nice when it's cold.

I bet it would go great with tea, or hot chocolate!

[vertrauen]

We have it with tea. I think I sleep better whenever I have it after dinner, though that may just be because I'm more full than usual.

[copia]

[ She covers her mouth as she giggles. ]

A full stomach is better than none at all!

[vertrauen]

Yes, that's true. We never went hungry in the military, but it was rarely any kind of good food like that.

[copia]

Hopefully you try lots of food that you will consider "good"!

[ She smiles as she takes some more protein from the pot, dipping it into her egg. ]
