We'll find waffles. ( She laughs a little, wrinkling her nose at the thought. ) My mum's pretty intimidating in the kitchen. Not, like, scary, but I was always scared to make anything more complicated than scrambled eggs because she was so good. There was a special place in the kitchen for her prizes. ( That isn't sarcasm, she really did win prizes. ) Best Sponge Cake, and all that.
( She can't remember the last time anyone cooked something special for her - it makes her feel disproportionately pleased. ) Maybe I can weld a waffle iron. ( . . . ) Maybe I can learn how to weld.
