<div class="floatright">(https://i.imgur.com/f4gYJV8.jpg)</div><strong>Name: Astra (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=347305.msg16353821#msg16353821)</strong><br/><strong>Location:</strong>Expedition Camp -- Kitchens<br/><strong>Warnings:</strong><br/><strong>Open/Closed:</strong>Open to Closed<br/><strong>Direct Interaction Tags:</strong>Freis<br/><strong>Mentioned Tags:</strong><br/><strong>Actions Taken:</strong>Going back to baking! She has removed herself from conversation for the time being.<br/><hr/><strong> </strong><br/><br/>She had followed behind the two to ensure that they followed her directions to her satisfaction, and she seemed exceptionally pleased that the duo did as asked without a murmur of angst that she saw.<strong>"Two days?"</strong>she said conversationally to Freis.<strong>"I suppose these hungry mouths will have to settle for biscuits over bread, but I'll manage somehow."</strong>Truth be told, there were<em>plenty</em>of supplies for everyone in the expedition to comfortably eat, but they were setting out tomorrow to see what spoils the island had to offer. First days were always filled with surprises. Which healing supplies would she need? What types of combatants would they face? Would the terrain need to be soothed for their travel? Astra worried and when she worried, she spent her time between fretting and baking.<br/><br/><strong>"We have an adequate amount to last. As for the arable land, I've already been requested to advise on that little adventure,"</strong>Astra said pleasantly.<strong>"I even have a few seeds to sow to get us started if we can find a pleasant plot of land!"</strong>She placed her hands on her hips and nodded out to the crowd eating dinner.<strong>"I have quite a list of chores to complete tonight to get ready for the morrow, Miss Freis. It was such a pleasure to run into you as always! Please make sure you grab a spot of tea from the kettle; I keep it piping hot and it does the body good! And there are cakes there, too. I recommend the almond cakes. Oh, did I mention we were almost out of almonds as well? Well toodaloo!"</strong>The cheery waggle of her fingers and quick step kept her from potential reprimand - all of this unauthorized baking was certainly going to make a dent in their rations - but they weren't scraping the bottoms of any barrels yet with the expedition still fresh. With a joyous laugh at her well-intentioned mischievousness, she bee-lined towards the table near the newly built oven to continue her work of making bread.
