Mag and Anna sat with a glass of water between them and stared at each other in silence for over 10 minutes.
In the end, Anna couldn't help but break the silence. "Uncle Mag, are we going to start cooking now?"
"Yes. Cooking is a craft that will take a long time to master. You haven't learned cooking before, so we'll start off with some cutting skills. Those skills will lay the foundation for your cooking." Mag nodded in response. It was not going to be an easy task to teach a five- or six-year-old little girl who had never even held a chef's knife before. At the very least, it was going to be far more difficult than teaching Yabemiya to make ice cream.
"Alright." Anna stood up and nodded with an expectant look in her eyes.
