Autumn Wildflowers

"I like flowers!" Gossamer said, in defense of adding the flowers to her tea. It might not have been the most logical reason to add them but if it wouldn't hurt the tea she wanted to make it pretty too.

Ásta nodded. "Yes, bones are useful for all kinds of things. You can even chew them into knives and spearheads with enough patience." As the fox wasn't really the fighting sort she hadn't spent much time attempting these projects but she knew it was possible and might be of interest to both Kotori and Gossamer as they seemed to want to be warriors.

"Ok, I'm done!" Gossamer set down the bone she was using and looked to the fox. Ásta nodded. "Ok, now all we need to do is add in some water. About 8 oz for one cup of tea." The fox paused, wondering how to explain how much water was 8 ounces. The fox grabbed a water skin out of the travois and carefully worked the cork out with her teeth. She then added the water to Gossamer's bowl.

"That's about what 8 ounces looks like. Now, we scoot the bowl near the fire to warm up. You want steam to rise from the bowl for about… five minutes." Gossamer nodded and carefully used her paws to scoot the bowl toward the fire. It was a bit tricky for the pup as she had yet to achieve optimal coordination so it sloshed a bit but eventually she got it right up next to the edge of the fire.
