That was actually way cooler then the ideas Sandy had been kicking around. She grinned brightly.

"I think she'd love that! We'd probably have to make a couple though...she can eat alot of cake and if we invite her friends then they'll need cake too."

Besides painting, baking is what he does best. More specifically, of course, the decorating. He doesn't see it as just putting frosting on a cake or a cookie. It's art as much as a painting or a drawing is. Everyone deserves something special if they're going to get a cake for their birthday.

"Hm..." Peeta hummed for a moment. "What about we make the dagger the main cake, and then tons of little cakes that are also decorated in some way, maybe in different shapes? You can help." He grinned.

"I think we could turn out a ton of cakes if we do it in the kitchens at the tower. I'm sure they'll have everything you'd ever need."

"That's perfect!" She's getting all fired up now. "Effie can help us find a place to have the party. Nothing too fancy because you know how Pruna is about fancy." She smirked.

"She's gonna be so happy she won't know what to do." And given Pruna's usual ideas of what made her happy, that was pretty likely.

Peeta is getting just as fired up about this! "Effie will be a big help with finding the place. We could always do it on the roof of the tribute tower, if you'd like. You'll have to let me know when it's her birthday, too."

He grins, visibly beaming in excitement. "How about planning it for after this coming arena? I need to go check out the kitchens and everything. It'll probably take a week or two, to start experimenting."

A week or two, maybe ones right in the middle of the arena. Epic baking log has a time line now.

"That would be perfect!" She grinned brightly. It was rare to see Sandy fired up about something, but planning this was making her feel excited. It was the first time in a long time she actually felt like a kid should feel.

She could only imagine how it would all make Pruna feel when the day came.

"If I can help with anything tell me." She insisted. "I don't know anything about baking...but I wanna make sure that this is perfect for her. She's done so much for me."

[shinyisfalse]

They've both done so much for each other, and Peeta knows it. They've done more for each other then he's done for them, though he's trying. He's trying for them.

"I can always use another pair of hands to help out." Peeta smiled. "And a taste tester. The baker shouldn't ever just rely on themselves." Even if it was just help in pouring batter into the pans, it was still help. Never say no to help.

[justoutrunyou]

Sandy's eyes were lit up with an excitement Peeta may not have ever seen in them before. Between painting, taste testing and making Pruna happy this was the most exciting thing she'd looked forward to in awhile.

"I'm in! I am so in!"

[shinyisfalse]

That made him feel good. Really good, because she should be excited. Should be happy. She's just a kid, she should get to be normal, do normal kid things.

You know that, as a mentor, that the people you were going to be mentoring were kids. But they weren't brought back, time and time again. That aged you. It really did.

"Good! Okay, then when we get back, we'll start testing recipes and see which cake tastes the best."
