[So Kayneth is in a rather unexpected situation this go around; that is to say he is currently in a kitchen that has various objects of cultural significance strewn about.
Judging by the ingredients, it appears as though he is attempting to make Mom's Favorite Chocolate-Covered Pretzels. One would think this was an accidental post, but... no.
That would probably be less of a clusterfuck, honestly.]
I am never really sure how many parallels there are between this world and my own, particularly in terms of holidays-even when it makes very little sense for them to be there for apparent historical reasons. With even recent news broadcasts by the natives dropping hints that Valentine's Day-or something like it-is around the corner, I'm finding myself rather curious about what sort of holidays naturally exist in this world.
I suppose that whatever the natives are celebrating could be some sort of equivalent that came about naturally... or it could be something that they picked up on from people from other worlds and decided to exploit in a fairly typical fashion. After all, why would the companies of this world miss out on an opportunity to use relationship-based guilt in their marketing strategies at some point in the year?
[you... you sound bitter, bro]
My general displeasure with the overcommercialization of this holiday aside, it is regrettably very effective in getting people to want copious amounts of sweets, but if I'm going to have anything like that this season it's going to be made by my own hands. Has anyone attempted the recipe that was brought up in Friday's news broadcast and found it to be less than satisfactory? If not... well, it should be obvious that I'm considering trying to make them.

[ Aradia's handwriting is not fancy, but is instead a neat print with rather curvy letters. She also writes in red, like she types, because SHE CAN. ]
Yours looks almost exactly as I pictured it!

Hmm... yours isn't much different from what I would have imagined either, though I'm quite glad you've confirmed my suspicions that it's neat and legible.

There's not much point to writing if other people can't read it - unless you want to be the only one to understand yourself, I mean.

Anyway, I actually have to run now. It looks like a few of the babies are fighting.
