<em>~Mila, reconsidering her stance on breakfast~</em><br/><br/>A croissant dipped in hot chocolate sounded heavenly.  Mila had never had a homemade croissant and was now wondering if Nicci knew how to make them.  She didn't think they'd be able to order in from a bakery to the island.  With a small smile, she said, "Well, I'm not usually a big breakfast person.  I make myself a bowl of oatmeal every day.  I live alone, so it isn't as if it's worth the effort to do more."  Laughing lightly, she added for David's benefit, since he hadn't been there the evening before, "I'm a horrible cook, David.  I'll be helping with prep work around the kitchen, or baking sweets.  That's about as far as my dubious 'talent' goes."<br/><br/>She smiled at Nicci.  "I have to admit that croissants and hot chocolate do sound good.  If I was more active like you and Mari, I could see getting into having that.  Every day.  But yoga doesn't burn as many calories as running does, so small breakfasts for me."  Mila knew that she and the other girls would be cooking all of the meals during their stay at the castle, and she wondered suddenly if it would be too much of a bother to ask Mari and Nicci for lessons.  Maybe they wouldn't want to be saddled with the task of teaching her, but maybe they wouldn't mind so much.
