conversations.value:  On the night of the Holy Night Festival, Claire, May, and Aleah sat around the dining table as, wearing oven mitts, I carried an herb-roasted whole chicken over and set the heavy platter down on the table with a thud. Many dishes were already set out in addition to the chicken: roast beef, green soybeans and burdock potage, root vegetable salad, and a decorated cake. I’d learned the herb-roasted whole chicken recipe from my mother in this world, but I’d added salt, pepper, and extra herbs to make my own deluxe version. The roast beef was lovely, especially as it was our first time having beef in a while. The potage was made with green soybeans and burdock that was boiled, mashed, mixed with milk, and then seasoned with salt and pepper. I made the salad by cooking up lotus root, carrots, potatoes, and onions, then covering them in dressing for a simple but flavorful dish. The decorated cake—the highlight of the spread—was a bit misshapen because I’d had May and Aleah’s help in decorating it.

conversations.value:  And so our party began. Ornaments made from colored paper decorated the walls—May and Aleah’s handiwork. We hadn’t been able to get a fir tree and instead had made our own miniature one out of colored paper and placed it in the center of the table. We’d poured our hearts into making our own inexpensive yet special Holy Night Festival.

conversations.value:  I took a slice of roast beef and nibbled on it. I’d cooked it in my own brand of onion sauce, and I had to say the outcome was so-so. May and Aleah had eaten only a small lunch in anticipation for tonight, and they were now stuffing their faces enthusiastically. With their help, all the food was soon cleaned away. We finished the whole cake as well, sharing it two slices per person. At last, I carried the empty plates to the sink with a satisfied smile.
