Charcoal
Title: Charcoal
Rating: PG.
Summary: Ivy cooks.
Date: 1997
Notes: She's not really a bad cook, it's just... carbonization! Such a fascinating reaction.
Gail woke when the smoke alarm went off.
Beside her, Nathan buried his head under the pillow. She envied him, but got up.
The smoke alarm stopped shrieking right before she entered the kitchen to find her daughter, scraping hopefully at a pan. Ivy glanced up, and immediately looked guilty.
"Ivy Sophia Hirschfeld-Kendall..." Gail began,.
"It's not my fault!" Ivy said. "The eggs were bad."
Since the eggs in question were now charcoal, Gail figured that was a moot point. "Clean up this mess," she said, "then go back to bed. Also, you're grounded."
"Oh, Mom," Ivy said, sounding resigned.
