Damian understood the importance of birthdays. Mother's gifts had always been extravagant. In fact, she seemed to enjoy outdoing herself with each passing year. Unfortunately, none of those gifts were suitable for this particular occasion.
Clearly there wasn't anything that his Father needed. He was a millionaire and his finances could fill a multitude of accounting ledgers. He was also a genius innovator. The toys in the cave were proof of that. Mass market goods would be laughable.
Damian had been in deep contemplation over the occasion when Pennyworth had offered his advice without prompting. The man was uncannily observant. 'Why don't you try making a gift, Master Damian?'
Making a card seemed entirely too simple, but baking shouldn't have been too hard. It was all chemical reactions and following a recipe. Damian had insisted he'd be fine, leaving Alfred sipping a cup of tea in the adjoining room and keeping a discreet eye upon his kitchen.
The oven was preheating and Damian had the various ingredients set out on the counter top. He scowled down at the recipe. Why did cooking have so much jargon?
"Pennyworth! How do you fold batter?"
