Morningstar Manor

( Lara's Major Douchebag is quite the little housewife. )

Memphis was still a little perplexed at the location of his tools, but he'd gone out and bought a new set. Didn't hurt to have more tools. He brought the tool box with him as he stopped to get the mail before heading upstairs.

Inside the box were the usual bills, a letter from his mother and a plastic wrapped magazine addressed to Travis. Brow knitted together, Memphis realized that there was nothing he could do about that.

Folding the mail over in the magazine, he picked up his tools and went to head out only to fumble the hold on the door knob and drop the mail.

The four large open demo kitchens in the big hall had been in good use from morning until evening. The Culinary Institute of America's contest for chefs that were previous students of the school hadkick started with twelve successful and talented chefs proving their skills working on ingredient baskets in three shifts. Apart from the contestants there was some audience, a handful of judges who were either teachers at the school or respected professionals on the field, and a film crew to document the fantastic display of culinary delights and the making of them.

Emily Brandon had been in the last shift with three other contestants. She had heard of most of the chefs before and met some of them - even went to school with one of them. Now that the contest was over and her 4-course menu had been served to the judges, she could breath easier than during the whole day. After a few hours of hectic working she finally could wash her chef's knife, take off her hat and sit back.

Nia was quite excited. She'd been put in her favourite top - the one with the sheep on it - and had sat in the back of the car and gone to a new place. And if that wasn't exciting enough she could sense that Daddy was very excited as well.

Somebody was coming to stay.

She held tight to Daddy D's neck and looked over the heads of the crowds with their bags and things and wondered who it could be.
