Twilight Sparkle is holding a pot luck, and Rainbow Dash has to bring a dish. Will cooking be as easy as she thinks?

(This story was written for an Equestria Daily speed-writing challenge that assigned a theme and only allowed two hours of writing time.)

I hope this gets featured. I loved this story too when I originally read this. :twilightsmile:

Awfully cute. I particularly like the lemon pep talk.

Not that Equestria coheres well to physical principles we understand (apparently, water does not evaporate, leaves do not fall, etc.) but I can't read this and not mention that the problem with boiling at high altitudes is that fluids boil too easily, which is to say, at a much lower temperature than they do at ground level, which is why high-altitude cooking directions specify longer cook times.

Love it! rainbow dash cooking was hillarious!:rainbowlaugh: and good job writing such a good story in such a short period of time:rainbowdetermined2:

Whoops. Can't think how I forgot this. Oh well. Still, it's funny enough that way.

Awww, this was cute! Short and sweet, love love love! Especially good for only two hours of writing time! However, this is getting on my baker's OCD, so I'll just stick this here for anypony cooking like Rainbow Dash (Hey, my now-nineteen-year-old brother once tried to make frosting with regular sugar)-

"Lemon zest" means the shredded peel of the lemon. Just grate it like...cheese.
It's impossible to boil dry ingredients, unless they're really gooey, like marshmallows.
You really need to set the oven for the temperature it says to, otherwise you'll get a charred mess.
Meringues are crazy-difficult to make. I strongly recommend cookies or something for a first-timer.
