[ Yelena stands before a countertop strewn with baking supplies and utensils, her apron stained from various ingredients, looking equal parts annoyed and frustrated as she uses a rolling pin to massage the tension from her forehead. This shouldn't be that hard.

At first, she thought that she could get away with pretending. Her bakery had recently burned to the ground and reconstruction would take time. Now, it's three years ago and the bakery is miraculously intact. There's just one problem... ]

Okay, I have put this off for long enough. Does anyone know how to bake?

Eggs, flour, sugar. Either butter or oil, depending on how rich you want it?

[A beat.]

I'm going to guess that these ovens don't have temperature settings?

[vdovy]

They don't have settings at all, except for how much wood you throw in. But that's the easy part. I chopped... a lot of wood trying to put off the actual baking part.

[rumorate]

Well, the temperature was usually around like three-fifty? I'm not sure how that applies to wood fire stoves.

[It's one thing to bake a cake, it's another to be roughing it, so to speak.]

If you figure that out, it's only like fifteen or twenty minutes to bake.
