While she didn't particularly have the biggest sweet tooth, she could definitely enjoy them, and so far the vanilla Macaroons were winning. They were just so creamy and fluffy, and she loved pure vanilla. Perhaps her tastes were just that simple? Then again, the crepe was really good too... Did it count as a sweet just because it had preserves in it?<br/><br/>Thoughts for another time.<br/><br/>The next thing on her delectable list of treats to try was their tea. Their Tieguanyin, to be specific. It was a type of oolong tea, and one of the many they had in their variety to choose from. She just<i>had</i>to try it. It smelled so aromatic - as if it would go perfectly with honey. Now that it had enough time to seep within the personal pot they had allowed each student to use, she paused only long enough to pour herself a cup and stir in some orange blossom honey.<br/><br/>Valerie was so caught up in her own little world that it wasn't until she brought the beautiful little cup to her pale pink lips that she realized someone had approached her - and only because they outright greeted her. "Oh!" She nearly sputtered and set the cup right back down, freeing her hands up to take the hand the man had offered her. "Nice to meet you Jack, I'm Valerie." She smiled, cupping his hand within both of her own. The handshake was not particularly graceful, nor very strong, but it was certainly enthusiastic enough. "Are you perhaps with the student council?" That would explain why he had approached her, at least. Wasn't part of their job to welcome and advise new students?
