Ann placed food on two plates then handed Kate a fork, knife, and spoon. "Stay as you are dear. Eat all you want. If you want more just ask. On you plate is roast boar with cooked potato, green beans, and carrots. I made you corn bread, gingerbread, and sweet rolls to taste. Dessert is gingerbread men with cream cheese frosting. What would you like to drink hot cocoa or warm spiced cider? After dinner, will yah  visit meh please?"<br/><br/>Kate took her plate, Ann made his food into small bites and gave him a whole cookie. "The family will make a lot of noise, Dear, I know yah nerves are shot. We can visit in quiet."<br/><br/>The mage set the tabby on the table, "Thank you Ann this smells good. Your right Ann, he needs quiet and time to know you. Your so good with newcomers. Jasper, Ann is as close to a mother as you will meet. She has a kind way to make your adjustment easier."
