Maybe 40-year old chef meets someone younger who ends up joining the journey as an apprentice/student during the first story? Could allow recipes from both perspectives.

Either way, this sounds like such a fun idea!

Important note: made with 4 cups of flour, instead of 6.

Some errata:

In the Multipurpose Roll recipe, Step 4 happens between Step 1 & 2. (No idea how they are out of order and made it through so many rounds of editing without being fixed)

In the Focaccia recipe: it needs 4 cups of flour, not 6.

First attempt came out not quite photo-worthy,* but delicious with a little butter and jam.

Definitely going on the 'make again' list!

*Also, people started grabbing and eating them before I could arrange some for a picture.

Very tasty! Some lessons to be learned, but all in all we're considering this a complete success.

Here are some of the ones that came out best. They are delicious!

We ended up baking them in 2 batches, as they wouldn't all fit on our baking sheet - the first batch turned out to be a little over-crowded anyway.

We thought it would be fun to make some cookies for our early Christmas celebration and, after considering our available supplies, decided to try a chocolate orange version inspired by the Berry Swirl Cookies recipe.

(She is more comfortable in the kitchen and willing to experiment than I am.)

Pelren's team emerged from their first match victorious, with no one killed, though several were changed by their brush with a guardian of the Rainbow Woodland. Pelren's injured arm was the least of these changes.

My current half-game, half-writing project involves running through a series of arena matches to build a collection of gladiator characters with abilities determined by their experiences. Gladiators as a group are important in Iskan (though politically powerless).

Pelren has a clear interest in one of his teammates, Will Trobier. Pelren spent much of his first match trying to keep Will alive after he was surrounded by several enemies and severely injured early in the fight. Pelren's blessing kept Will from bleeding to death long enough to seal his wounds.

He also opened a portal that drew the attention of two chaos spirits. One of these turned out to be dangerous, leaving him with a badly injured arm as punishment for intruding on her domain.

He has no intention of repeating that mistake.

He prefers to fight unarmed unless feeling heavy pressure.

Although Pelren has a low inclination for magic, he has picked up a few abilities:
-Creating javelins of hardened light
-Bestowing protective and healing blessings
-Assessing personalities & abilities
-Opening locks

Pelren is generally unexceptional in height, build, and appearance - on the lean side, with long, blond hair. He aspires to lead his team, mostly in the hopes of getting first shot at any useful loot or prizes.

He is a flashy fighter, but tries to keep violence limited.

Nice to have some options for a hat to fit the situation.

That looks like an excellent hat!

Bonus: one time, while moving a wheelbarrow, I looked down through a gopher hole and saw a large snake directly below me. I didn't see it well enough to tell what kind - and did not stick around to try to figure out.
