Phillip will copy some of his recipes down after resting so he can share them with the others, perhaps a central cook book for others to examine with the others can be made.

Kehlysch makes it to the docks by mid-day. He notices how much the air reeks of dead fish, seawater, and stale sweat.
Never noticed the smell before. I guess when you grow up with it...
He heads towards the shop stalls, where he's sure Old Mag will be hawking whatever she's managed to catch without his help over the past week.
Seeing her hunched shoulders and iron-grey hair, she calls out to her.
"Mag! Mag!"
Tessara returns to her and Mimi's dorm to begin getting her notes and recipes in order to begin copying them down for this new project.
"I can't wait to get started on this new recipe book! It's going to be oodles of fuuun!" she sings to no one in particular.
Mimi nods. "A functional kitchen is a collaborative one," she says, as if that is somehow a logical reply.

Looking around I grab some parchment and a quill and start writing down all of my recipes that I can remember right off the top of my head
Recipes of the tower chef's. hmm.. I think that has a nice ring to it what about you all?
I have some pages here for others to examine. A few appitizers and main dishes, I wasn't sure about soups since we already have someone who fills that role.

Vincent will bow to the Lord, he will than return to work in the kitchen. He keeps up the hard work, making sure not to alter the stew in any way. If it ain't broke, don't go fixin' it, he thinks to himself.
On his 2 days off, he will soak his old body, off an on during the day. He will write another note to his wife and grandchild. He finishes the letter by inviting them to the manor next weekend to see and experience what he is.

Dinte accepts the spotlight for the presentation with grace bowing to the crowd for his team, yet inwardly fuming at his mechanical creation, despite the exquisite results.
Once the awarding of the purses and the Lord Schmultzfeather has left, he turns to his group before cleaning up his area.
"I feel like I must apologize for not performing at my best tonight, I'm afraid it may have cost us that edge we needed. I will do better."
Dinte spends several hours of each day of 'rest' carefully cutting and stuffing pears in preparation for the upcoming dessert, trying to get JUST the right set of angles, and density of the stuffing, so that his next performance will have a bit more flair to it.
"Is the title important?" Mimi asks Bahram blankly.

When the winners of the comfort foods are announced, despite it being the other team, Ashley holds a combination of beaming enthusiasm with self-satisfied smirk, though he tries (unsuccessfully) to hide it behind his fan.
After escaping the crowd, he - gently - half-collapses against the wall in a combination of relief and desperate breathing, fanning himself softly, as he turns and rests his back against it. It's been a long week - almost more like a month and a bit! - of work. And he was just getting started. A satisfied smile and focused look comes and he gently pushes himself off of the wall.
He startles a little when he is referenced.
Kehlysch nods. "I would be will to contribute as well. I do, however, need to visit my family in the morning. I will leave my recipe journal with my room mate." He nods to Ashley. "I trust that he will take care of it, and return it to my chest when you all have finished with it."
Ashley bows, fan firmly in place. "I am honored by your trust. I shall do as you say, my friend." he nods, deeply, toward Kehlysch.
As talk of a book forms, Ashley finds himself nodding, gently, but clearly enthusiastic for the idea. When he hears the master of chop fu say,
Mimi nods. "A functional kitchen is a collaborative one," she says, as if that is somehow a logical reply.
... and adds, "A sound philosophy, Chef Mimi, and one with which I wholeheartedly agree. But yes, a book for all of us would be ideal."

"Is the title important?" Mimi asks Bahram blankly.
"It does have something of a ring to it, Bahram, but-" here he stops, glancing at Mimi, "-perhaps the final title could wait until we've a little more time to settle the idea some more. A title should be most captivating and intriguing, however. It will be more enjoyable for those who come after."
Dinte accepts the spotlight for the presentation with grace bowing to the crowd for his team, yet inwardly fuming at his mechanical creation, despite the exquisite results.

"I feel like I must apologize for not performing at my best tonight, I'm afraid it may have cost us that edge we needed. I will do better."
Ashley blinks at Dinte. "Chef Dinte... please do not apologize. You served a fine dish, and I, for one, am proud to have been your partner on this team. I am honored by your presence and skill." he bows.
Dinte spends several hours of each day of 'rest' carefully cutting and stuffing pears in preparation for the upcoming dessert, trying to get JUST the right set of angles, and density of the stuffing, so that his next performance will have a bit more flair to it.
... and Ashley would work to assist him as much as possible while keeping to his own work, as well as that of his friends. He wants his teammate to feel proud of his accomplishments!
...but mostly just seems to get in the way.

These will be for starting the Exotic Delights weekend, which I will describe soon.
Feel free to add some character description/interaction for the preparation, but don't move on to the Evening with guests yet.
Thanks!

Ashley continues to attempt to slave over his creations, all the while attempting to assist his fellows.
During the weekend, Vincent will feel very homesick, adn look to the others, I am terribly sorry folks, but I must return home. I miss my family too much, and being away from them kills me every day. Good luck to all, and may your dishes be as vibrant in color as they are in taste.

Mimi wonders why Ashley is so hot now that the ovens are off.
... and adds, "A sound philosophy, Chef Mimi, and one with which I wholeheartedly agree. But yes, a book for all of us would be ideal."
"I am glad you think so, Chef Ashley. I admit, I was not expecting the competitive nature of how our work would be received. We are all experts in different areas after all. We should contribute to the harmony of True Flavor rather than the bitterness of pride."

Mimi blinks, a little suprised, but bows at Vincent and responds without question, "May your travels guide you toward the path of True Flavor, Chef Vincent."
Tessara gives Vincent a big, smooshy Tessara-hug.
"I'll miss you, Mr. Del Sol. It was wonderful working with you."
"Safe travels, Chef Vincent," Kehlysch says, adding his sentiment to the chorus of well-wishers.
