Roger hadn't really thought much about Max asking if there were things Roger felt they hadn't done during their childhood that he might now. That was, until he'd seen a kit for gingerbread houses at a shop. Baking together certainly wasn't something him and Max had done as kids, Roger was quite sure that had little to do with their mum not being alive and a lot more to do with house elves being in charge of their food. Still, the idea of making a gingerbread house seemed quite appealing to Roger, and now with Max having taken cake classes, or whatever, it seemed the perfect time to give it a go. So Roger had bought like four of the boxes, just in case, and invited Max over. It wasn't going too badly either, the first lot of gingerbread already cooling and the next in the oven.
"Okay, this says 'mix icing'," Roger said and then frowned. "I don't know how to make icing before the mixing stage, do you?" Hopefully, that was something they'd covered in Max's cake education. Reaching for his beer, Roger flipped the box over, looking at the picture of the gingerbread house and then at the gingerbread they'd just taken out of the oven. It looked about the same colour, so Roger assumed that was a good sign. "I assume this is something you do with your parents," Roger commented. "I feel like the fun might come from being a kid, so far we've just successfully baked stuff and frankly, I assume that's the parents job. We are parenting our childhood activity."
