Mini-Challenge: Cheftide

Thanks to [personal profile] crantz for the name!

Let's face it. Some characters are good at cooking. Some characters are not good at cooking. Some characters merely need to allow their cooking genius to develop. But all of it makes for great fic!

This year, let's write some cooking for Yuletide. Let's explore all manner and methods of preparing food for consumption, whether it be for humans or space aliens or bears or anything you can think of.

"Cooking", for the sake of this challenge, is defined as broadly as you like to be for any kind of food preparation you would like it to be. Recipes optional, but welcome.

To participate, leave a comment with your AO3 name, your fandoms, and any prompts, and/or put them in your letter as Cheftide prompts. When posting your fic, tag it as Cheftide.

Fandom: Little Women (1994)
Characters: Any

There are a number of food-rich scenes in the movie and book. I'd love for Jo and Friedrich to cook together, or the March sisters. Maybe a young Marmee fussing over her first Christmas dinner?

Fandom: Moonstruck (1987)
Characters: Loretta Castorini, Rose Castorini, Ronny Cammareri

Ronny's a professional baker, so you can have so much fun with trying to figure out why this really intense guy has gotten into a business that requires such preciseness. Loretta and Rose cook a lot, so the two of them comparing notes and complaining as they make dinner would be a lot of fun as well! Maybe Ronny teaches Loretta how to bake? Maybe Rose passes some traditions on to Ronny?
