"Oh dear where is it" Xopek yelled. He looked at his book collection and saw he was missing his favorite book, it was called -The History of Esterberry and the lesser regions-. Xopek wondered where could it have gone. "bah I'll get another one from the book store down town" He exclaimed. "There had better be one in stock" He growled. He left his small esterberry home and wondered down the street to the book store. He needed that book and he hoped there would be one there. People walking past him gave him weird looks, it didn't help he was walking as fast as possible with a look of pure rage. He saw the bookstore and he opened the door and walked inside to find his favorite book.

The Torque feline was moving down the street, his back pack jingling with pots and pans. People would give him some odd ball looks as he made his way past, for it was really uncommon for a Torque to be smiling and having what seemed a blast. He would look about and finally find what he was looking for. He moved up the stair and opened the door moving inside the book store that he had been looking for for quite some time. He wasn't looking for anyone that would be there, but he was looking for a book that he had heard about. It was a cook book of Esterberry recipes. He would be looking up and down the aisles trying to find the right section that he needed.

Xopek went inside the book store and looked up in amazement. the store had so many books to read. He asked an attendant at the front of the store where history books would be. she said they were next to the cook books.
he wandered around until he found the row marked -Cook Books-. He wondered down the row to see if there would be a book on recipes so he could make some good food. He saw a torquehelm feline looking along the row. He was looking around for something. Xopek thought to himself mabye another card who enjoyed books as much as he did. He moved closer and said.
"What book are you looking for."
The feline had a large pack full of pots and pans. the weirdest thing of all he looked happy. which is weird for a torquehelm as everyone knows. I'll bet this guy is quite interesting Xopek thought.

Menefer was engrossed into his search, trying to find that one book that was going to compose each and every dish that the Esterberry had in this region. IF he could find such book then his search would be finished and he could make dishes that would appeal to many in the capital. People would come from all around to find him to eat his dishes and have some really magical moments. He was in love with the fact that he could do such a thing for each person.
The main reason for him turning to become a cook was to find that special someone that would love him as much as he would love them. The very idea was so appeasing that it made him shiver with delight, which was stopped suddenly when he heard someone talking to him.
He turned to gaze at the man and smiled largely. "Hello there! And yes, I'm looking for a cook book that composes all of the Esterberry recopies'." he said with a shrug as he sat on his haunches.
{{ooc: sorry about the lateness. Easter and all, ^_^}}

{{ Its alright }} "Your looking for a book on recipes? I'm looking for a book on history their right next to each other which is good. You wouldn't happen to be a chef would you? The pots and pans in your bag gave me the idea." He responded. "I happen to be a connoisseur of fine foods i know a couple recipes and where the book your looking for is. If you'll follow me its right here. If you ever need someone to test your foods, I'd be happy to. If you are a chef why do you want to have a restaurant?"He knew he was asking quite a lot from a total stranger, but the prospect of fine food was too much. The feline seemed like a good guy. He was an enigma also with him being torque and happy.

The Torquehealm feline opened his eyes a bit in total wonder as he gazed at the Esterberry... wow he sure did talk a lot... and asked many a question when provoked with someone to talk to. He would though smile and follow him to the book that he had in mind. He smiled and flipped through the pages really quick and then closed the book and looked up at him.
"Well it would seem that I'm a bit hungry myself." he said as he walked to the counter and paid for the book in gold... he had to get money back... and quite a sum back. "Well if you want to find a nice clearing I wouldn't mind cooking up something for the both of us." he said with a very large smile and his tail awaging.
Could he be the one? he wondered as he gazed at the man.

"Sorry about talking so much. Its just good to have some intelligent conversation with someone." He said.
Xopek watched how the feline responded he had a big smile on his face. The feline found his book and rifled through it quickly. he walked over and payed for his book and asked about somewhere he could cook.
"Someplace to eat?... Hmmm... Ah i know there's a little park thing a couple blocks over there's plenty of room." He replied.
"I'll show you to it."
Xopek led him out of the store. They walked along until they found the park. It was large and very calming. There was a couple people walking along, but it was pretty empty otherwise. Xopek found a reasonable place to eat, so he and the feline set up the camp.
"What are you going to make." Xopek said.

Menefer just watched him move and smiled when it was deemed right. He moved along behind him and followed to the park where he quickly started to unpack his foods that he would be cooking today. He pulled out a cast iron pan, two pots, two bowls, and two cups that they would use to eat with today. He also almost forgotten to remove the silverware that he was going to eat with and cook with as well.
"Oh whatever is fine with me, though I might try to cook something in this book instead, well... if I have the ingrediants that is." he said as he started to remove his spices and opened the book gazing at the foods and deserts. He found one and smiled, "How does Ester roast sound?" he asked as he pulled out the cold tenderloin that he had in his pack. He looked into the side bag and realized that he would have to buy more ice soon, else everything was going to spoil.

Once they were settled. Menefer began removing pots and pans and utensils to cook with. To Xopek it seemed Menefer was a good chef. He thought that he must know many recipes and good things to eat.
Menefer said that maybe they would make ester roast. Xopek thought that sounded really good.
"What else are we going to have with our ester roast." Xopek said.
Xopek loved a good roast. It had to be one of his favorite foods. Xopek thought that a roast would be good, but they should have something else to go with it. He wanted to know how it was made so he could make the roast for himself later.
"How do you make this dish?" he said.
Menefer began cooking the roast. The smell was fabulous that meat aroma was good with the other spices mixed in. Xopek saw Menefer looking into his bag and saw he was running out of ice.
"I can go get more ice if we need it." Xopek said.

Menefer was quite pleased with himself as he been asking all these questions and even being able to explain what he was doing was really nice. Most people just wanted to eat and discuss what it tasted like, not to mention what was to be expected. He just smiled and continued to rub the Basel, tine, yellow horse tail, and many other herbs into the meat.
He would then take out some fresh tubers and slice them up prepping them to be added with the roast as well.
"Well, the vegetables will be the side dish, and the meat the main course." he said with a shrug as he added a bit more sea salt and onion. He would double check the recipe and smile with satisfaction as he knew that he had done what it had said to do.
"Well all is well now, just have to wait aobut four to five hours." he said with a smile as he sat their and looked to the ferret. "So my friend, what where you doing in the book store? You a cook as well?"
