<span style="font-weight:400">"Umm," Krystal thought about it. There were a lot of things he had made before. She then nced at Cedric and Violet. Their gaze was saying a lot of things.
<span style="font-weight:400">Make him cook a lot!
<span style="font-weight:400">Anything is fine.
<span style="font-weight:400">Violet was calm. She was fine with anything. Cedric, on the other hand, had a crazed one. He was telling her to ask him to make a lot! What should I do? She thought about it before muttering, "Can you make two options: one sweet and the other savory?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Ho, you want two things, huh?" Keith chuckled, thinking, "How about I make some cinnamon toast. I can make an omelet and hash browns as savory?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Alright!" Cedric couldn''t contain his excitement and pumped his fist in the air, much to the amusement of Violet and the exasperation of Edmund.
<span style="font-weight:400">Father, how could you be like this?
<span style="font-weight:400">"Do you need to go to the kitchen?" Krystal asked.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I could cook it right here." Keith didn''t mind as he summoned all the ingredients and a hotte.
<span style="font-weight:400">"You have a hotte on you?" Edmund muttered. Never have he seen someone have a magic hotte on him.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm, it makes things easier for me to cook." Keith asked, "Is it fine for me to cook here?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Of-" "Of course! We get the food faster!" Cedricmented before Edmund could!
<span style="font-weight:400">"Thank you." Savory options came first. Keith cracked some eggs and started to stir them. Once that was finished, he poured it into the pan, cooking it up.
<span style="font-weight:400">A perfect half-moon omelet was before them.
<span style="font-weight:400">Hash browns were simple as well. When shredding the potatoes, use a cloth to remove the liquid; the next step was frying it. A crispy golden potato was before them.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Here you are, omelet and hash browns." Keith handed everyone the omelets. Cedric ate like a ferocious animal.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Father." Edmund was about to cry; how could he eat like this? You are not starved!
<span style="font-weight:400">"Oh, please. This kid has seen how I eat before. There''s really nothing he hasn''t seen!" He was a long-time customer of his cart! Actually, this was much more mundane!
<span style="font-weight:400">"..." Edmund turned to Keith, who scratched his head. "I have seen a lot of Grandpa Cedric eating." Dude ate like a monster.
<span style="font-weight:400">"..." So embarrassing.
<span style="font-weight:400">Edmund sighed as he stared down at the breakfast. What could be the difference? It used the same ingredients. As he took a bite of the hashbrowns, he understood.
<span style="font-weight:400">Crispy and light. The boiled potatoes were soft and mushy. However, this was crunchy!
<span style="font-weight:400">"I should get started on the french toast." For french toast, it was simple. Making the custard required milk, eggs, and cinnamon. Adding vani juice to the custard would give it a sweet scent.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Dip some bread like so." Keith took out a loaf of bread and sliced them. Coating the bread with the custard, it was ced on the hotte.
<span style="font-weight:400">So rich! A sweet scent waffled the dining room as they watched it fry. Krystal and Violet stared intensely at the bread. Cedric looked like a ravenous animal.
<span style="font-weight:400">Time to flip; as he did, a crispy golden top was disyed to everyone.
<span style="font-weight:400">"It smells incredible." Edmund relished the scent.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Grandpa Cedric, it''s not done yet. I need to make the others." Keith had only made one; five more were needed.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Then make it quick."
<span style="font-weight:400">"..." Keith could only shake his head as he quickly made the others. Everyone had two slices of french toast.
<span style="font-weight:400">"And drizzle some condensed milk on the top." The crispy golden toast paired nicely with the white milky cream.
<span style="font-weight:400">"It''s done." Keith grinned as he handed the food over. Krystal and Violet took a bite. Their eyes brightened. Crispy on the outside and soft and chewy inside! This was perfect! What made it better was the rich and sweet taste of the condensed milk.
<span style="font-weight:400">Cedric didn''t say anything, but he ate at a ferocious speed. Keith took a bite,
<span style="font-weight:400">I think adding fruits would give it a more mellow taste. Keith turned to Edmund, "How does it taste, Sir Edmund?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"It''s delicious but a little on the heavier side." Edmund didn''t mind the taste, but it was strong and sweet.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I see," The french toast was on the stronger side.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Dear, I can take it if you don''t like it." Violet nudged her husband. The man nodded, "Thank you." Violet and Krystal seemed to like the taste. Cedric, there was really nothing to say about him. He would probably eat anything in front of him.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Sir Edmund, please try this." A drink appeared in his hand.
<span style="font-weight:400">"What''s this?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"It''s a drink that helps perk you up." Keith realized it. Edmund disyed tiredness.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmm." Sipping on it, his lips arched upward, "I quite prefer this. What''s it made from." He preferred a bitter taste to a sweet one.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Oh, it''s a brew that I made from my ind. I always have a case on me. It''s made out of macao beans." Never leave the ind without grounded macao beans.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I see." Macao beans. Edmund made a mental note. He got the feeling he would need to drink more.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Keith, more! Also, I want the drink as well!" Cedric called out. He remembered what that drink was.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Didn''t you have four slices?" Knowing this glutton, Keith made double the amount for him.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Ate it all."
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…." Keith could only shake his head,
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Keith, I''m also finished as well." Violet and Krystal coughed.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…Understood." Like that, he was going to make it for quite some time.
