Rowan is a horrible cook. She can burn rice black.

Ally isn’t a chef, but she’s decent. The best cook is Ty. Alec just avoids it completely.

I'm currently reading the only fantasy book I've ever read where elves are bad at cooking and the humans have cool enchanted cakes.

Anyway, how good at cooking are your characters?

is this about Greenland or Minneapolis?
How about we not get into a fight with Scandinavian soldiers in a frozen landscape. Foreign invaders trying that while going "we're bigger than you, back down" has a bad record.

Idea for somebody who wants to host a prompt game in February to steal:

FeBREWary

Featuring questions about potion-making, poison brewing, or even beer/other alcohol-crafting in our fictional worlds.

Khonri and I were talking about prompt games and also the spelling of February, but neither of us

S: Fraï got handed out random food bought by Marisa (who is a Spirit, and also modern cities are new to her) and left without supervision, without baseline of what a meal is

her chief recipe sauce is a mix of chocolate, toothpaste, and tomato sauce, sprinkled with little sugar hearts

she loves it

I mean, if she likes it, it isn't bad cooking. It's just not for me.🤣

Enoch has been studying culinary arts since the Bronze Age. He is arguably the best in any world.
At the opposite end of the spectrum, Ragheiyont is just learning what a quesadilla is.

I get fixated down temporary rabbit holes. I had a jungle kick for a while, and I spent days reading about how every layer of a rain forest is its own ecosystem, still relying on the other layers and I took that to an extreme.

First draft had the Singing Woods as a general fantasy forest.

Ezekiel had to provide for himself from a young age, so he knows how to cook a decent half a dozen meals. He doesn't "enjoy" cooking, but then again he isn't bothered by it.

Milos (dark elf): A couple of Home Ec classes do not a chef make; he lives off microwave ready meals and the staff canteen.
Alex (human): Grew up with the staff canteen; learned to cook out of spite and is excellent.
Simon (light elf): He can boil water? He hasn't burned down Jonathan's kitchen yet.

Ah! So there are other books where elves aren't magically good cooks.

This is brilliant! Please, someone steal this from Kira!

I have a whole god dedicated to brewing potions and alcohol, but I have too many projects and not enough time to host a prompt game.

Jack- Really quite good, as far as home-cooking goes. He enjoys the kitchen and his friends/family enjoy his cooking most of the time. He can be a bit niche, though, and not to everyone’s taste.
Charlie is so pathologically bad in the kitchen she can ruin a microwave burrito.

The Singing Woods' canopy is so dense that lakes with their own thriving ecosystems form on the surface. It's a wooded and fungal cave underneath.

Later, we meet a frog god.

Enjoy 2 snippets from the second Sigils novel, Sigils of Blight.

Living humans cannot understand spirits.

It's basically the whole point of the Good Thyme Inn, tbh. Like, if they didn't have some characters who were good at cooking, what are they even doing? 😂 Parsnips is a chef trained at a world-famous culinary school!

In MoDaH, Steffa likes to cook. She teaches Tynan how to make some things her way

In Flight of the Fates, AL is used to uh…improvised cooking. (They've got a great recipe for fire-grilled sewer rat though!)

Molly can't eat food that used to be alive, so, cooking? Nope! XD The closest she gets is fixing hot drinks from non-living ingredients (salt, vinegar, honey*, etc.)

My characters put together pie-iron pierogi around a backyard fire pit before heading off to Poland to partake in their babushka's Redwall-worthy Wigilia feast. Mmmm, gołąbki. 😋😋😋
