Wrong paper.

[healinghotpot]

Oh? No, it's the paper I intended to use, I assure you. What better way to find sources for your ingredients?

[beathollow]

Hosting a cooking class?

[healinghotpot]

Not exactly. I am a healer, and I practice the art of healing via cooking. Considering I've arrived with little on my person and even less of the ingredients I typically have on hand, I figured it would be best to stock up as soon as possible.

[eidxiety]

hemlock

[healinghotpot]

Well, that isn't a traditional ingredient in hot pot...

[eidxiety]

ghost pepper :O

[healinghotpot]

[ !! ]

What is a ghost pepper?

[quirkynote]

Insufficient sources of protein. You are going to die.

[healinghotpot]

This is only for the soup base. Anything else can be added later on.

[quirkynote]

I can only hope so. Lack of proper nutrition is a horrible way to end one's life.

[Wrote A.B.A. Whose eating habits are questionable at best.]

Do you require assistance killing anything for meat?

[healinghotpot]

[ Do not question the healer. His own eating habits may be questionable, but that's neither here nor there. ]

Yes, actually, if that is the best way to obtain meat. Fish or prawns, perhaps... I'm not sure what meat is readily available here, actually.

[ephemeralflow]

[What a good list of ingredients, surely this person won't mind if...]

milk
flour
spice blend
sugar
salt

[...she adds to the list with some things that might sound ominously familiar to certain other cookies.]

[healinghotpot]

Hmm. What sort of spice blend?

[ephemeralflow]

A destructively fiery one, of course!

[healinghotpot]

[ Ooh. ]

I would very much like to try some, if you have it.

[purevanillacookie]

[ He considers for a moment if drawing upset faces around the list would be rude or not.

He won't do it but, Witches, he considers!! ]

[ephemeralflow]

[Awwwww, she went to all that trouble of making a cookie in-joke, and she's not even going to get a frowny face next to her list from you, PV? What a shame!]

[purevanillacookie]

Ginger, Garlic, Chili Pepper can be picked fresh from our gardens. Cooking wine, oil, and tallow may be requisitioned from Heimr, as well as the others, I believe!

[healinghotpot]

Is that so! Thank you for telling me. I'll place an order the next time I get a chance, if I can't find them elsewhere.

I would love some of those freshly-sourced ingredients, though. Where might these gardens be?

[purevanillacookie]

You may find the garlic and chili peppers in the garden by the house that looks like it's made of gingerbread, and you can find the ginger in the greenhouse next to the clinic, which is directly across from the gingerbread house! Please, take as much as you desire, though I do ask for the greenhouse to please leave a note of what you've taken!

[healinghotpot]

[ Gingerbread house... ]

You are too kind, thank you. What would you like for payment? If nothing else, I'd be happy to treat you to a good meal.

[timidheart]

I see that many have responded to you thus far but, I ...am not unskilled in foraging should you be looking for anything more obscure. I have a small tea garden as well.

[healinghotpot]

Oh? What a very good skill to have. I would appreciate any root vegetables and greens that you might be able to find, and tea would go well with the addition of wild berries.

[timidheart]

I will bring you what I am able to find. Things that grow without light are a specialty of mine ...and I got very good at scavenging in a place where food was very scarce. I know well what one should and shouldn't eat...! I am familiar with old herbal remedies as well, I suppose.
