"Oh, so many things!" I tell her, surprising myself a little bit with how vehement a response it is. Some part of me thinks Carson would smile to hear me so excited even if it's not in a subject he'd be much inclined to consider worthy of anything. "I'm pretty good at pies, but I still have a lot to learn about cakes and tarts and puff pastries. I've only tried working with marzipan once and it was a total disaster and I don't think I could make a decent arlette if my life depended on it. Basically, if they had anything here like the Great British Bake-Off, I would fail out instantly."
Of course, I don't know if she has any idea what GBBO is, but I figure if she doesn't and she's curious, she'll ask. She doesn't seem the type that's nervous about that sort of thing.
"But goodness, you were in DC? I've only been there once for a school trip. What made y'all move to Florida?" Because I'm assuming she moved there with her family, which maybe I shouldn't. It's not a good idea to assume things, I now. "Is it because real estate's better down there? And what's an investment property?"
