Good morning from Santa! So, I haven’t written any more, but the plot keeps expanding in my head. As it always does, I swear I can’t make anything that’s not epic. This thing’s turning into a complete monster. Since I’m here, I thought I might ask: since there’s going to be a lot of food in this fic, any thoughts on what you’d like Gold and Belle’s signature dishes to be? What’s your favourite food? ;-)

Heya Santa *waves*

I’m not surprised you haven’t written anymore *glares at the sun* stop making it so damn hot! Yesterday was better, by the night time it was nice. I kinda … refuse to open my windows on anything other than ventilate because I have this thing about bugs, and of course British houses trap heat so my room was still pretty warm for most of yesterday. Woke up this morning and it was so nice, and now the day is progressing and it’s getting hotter again and just ugh can it be winter please?

Anyway, enough moaning about the weather. I’m not sure if I should apologize for the fic turning epic, or do a *happy dance* because wow that sounds incredible, maybe both? I hope it won’t give you trouble Santa, as always what I want most is for you to be happy and enjoy writing the fic.

Hmm food. My tastes are very simple to be honest. It’s sort of a joke in my family that I’m the best person to take out for dinner because I don’t like anything fancy. Chain places, and the cheaper ones at that, are the order of the day. So I really know absolutely nothing about proper food, the kind that they would serve at an upscale restaurant like Gold works at. I’m also a pretty rubbish cook. My version of “making an effort” involves anything that I actually have to chop stuff for, or sit and babysit it rather than leaving it and coming back when it’s cooked. I know I’m terrible.

That being said. I eat a fair bit of pasta and rice dishes. I like to stir-fry things and then either have it with pasta, or mix it with rice. I don’t like mash, I’m not really fond of potatoes full stop unless they are the fries variety. I don’t really like heavier meals like stews, but I confess that if I can’t avoid it then I will have rice rather than mash. I know rice with gravy is probably weird but it tastes nice to me. When I’m not feeling well I’ll often have sausages with rice and gravy.

So yeah pasta, rice – bacon! Seriously bacon goes with a lot. Oh and peppers (not the hot kind) also go with so much. Chicken is probably the meat I eat the most. Although I don’t like whole roast chicken, it’s got a funny flavor. What else do I eat on a regular basis? I usually have spaghetti and meatballs most weeks. This is probably not at all helpful for you. It’s too plain, not fancy enough. If Gold is the fancy head chef, I would be teenage Bae staring at the fancy food in horror and not wanting to eat anything heh.

Sorry Santa. I just don’t know anything about food. I hope you have a good week! Oh and I hope you stay cool!
