Soon Howie found the cook book and they all gathered, searching for a miracle recipe.

“Why don’t we just make soup?” Howie asked.

“How?” Brian questioned.

“Blend them up?” Howie said.

“No, not fancy enough. Brian said flipping through the book.

“FANCY ENOUGH?!?!?” They all screamed in unison.

“Man, we want to live and you want FANCY!?” A.J said sacred of what this was leading to.

“Not that fancy, just... well, any idiot can make soup.” Brian replied.

“Not this bunch of idiots!” Howie objected.

“Shut up!” Nick and A.J said holding on to any shred of dignity they had left.

“Ughhhh… what about we make dessert?” Brian suggested closing the book and turning to face them.

“YAAAAAY!!“ Nick exclaimed, desserts were always the favorite part of his meal.

“Okay then, we’ll make chocolate cake, once Leigh made me help out so I know exactly how.” Brian reassured them.

“Oh great, just great.” Howie said.

After carefully following Brian’s instructions they now stared down at, surprisingly, a good enough cake batter.

They poured it into a baking tray and placed it in the oven. “There.” They smiled proudly at themselves- nothing had yet blown up.

“Dangit! Look at the time.” Brian said, “Leigh will be here in half an hour! Well we’ll just have to make soup.”

They all sighed in relief. They were going to survive.

Brian took out the blender then hurriedly left for the bathroom, ”just put them in then turn it on!”

“Okay.” Nick said, “so we put the vegetables in then the, uhhhh… the frozen pee-colored ice?”

“Pee-colored? Eeeeeewwww man its food. Gross.” Howie complained about Nick’s description of the chicken stock.

A.J snickered “Girl.”

Howie rolled his eyes and decided that he was too mature to answer back.

Nick had already put the vegetables and the ‘pee-colored ice’ in the blender and was now at his favorite part- blending them. “Farewell poor food-“

He turned on the machine a second to early, he missed Howie yell, “PUT THE LID ON!!!!” So the food exploded in his face, splattering the whole kitchen in an ocean of freezing, mashed vegetables.

“TURN IT OFF!!!” A.J yelled.

“I AM!!!” Nick yelled back switching off the blender.

“You idiot.” A.J said, wiping the goul off him.

“MY HAIR!!!!” Howie bellowed.

“WHAT HAPPENED!?” Brian yelled from the kitchen door.

“Ummmmmmm… oops?” Nick said, smiling innocently in hopes of getting out of the hot spot he had just thrown himself into.

“YOU DIMWIT!!!!” Brian bellowed.

“I’m sorry.” Nick said.

“SORRY!?!?! YOU’RE SORRY!!!!!” Brian yelled.

“Ummmmm… guys?” A.J said noticing the smoke escaping from the oven.

“Nooooo.” Brian said, feeling defeated, he quickly took out the burnt chicken and set it on the counter. “We forgot about it didn’t we?” Brian gloomily asked.

“Well what about the cake?” A.J asked, taking out the cake he dipped his finger in the hot dough. Making a disgusted face he asked, “smoked cake?”

“You’re screwed.” Nick said solemnly.

“MY HAIR!!!” Howie screamed, still in shock why no one seemed to care.

“But there still might be a way…” A.J said.


Leighanne walked into the dinning room to find a neatly set table and an uneasy Brian. “Let the food testing begin!” She said, “I’m starving.”

Brian nodded, bringing out the dinner.

“Good food, babe.” Leighanne said, she had finished eating a wonderfully cooked meal and was now bloated and content, “okay you win, you and your friends can cook.” She said.

Noticing something glitter in his eyes, guilt? She asked, “did you really?".

“I didn’t.” He confessed.

“Then?”

“Restaurant.”

She shook her head.

“A.J made me… he- he- BET me!” Brian explained.

“Its okay baby, I’ll somehow find it in me to forgive you.” She joked giving him a kiss. She then smiled.
He took out a crisp twenty dollar bill.
