-Katara Age:5-

Katara sat down on the fur of a plateaus bear, that was given as a gift to her mother and father, when she was born.

Katara giggled, her mother bent down handing Katara a tray of spices.

"When ever I say a spice Katara," Her mothers voice was gentle, "You hand it to me okay?"

Katara nodded happily "Okay Mom!" Her hands had a grip firmly on the tray handles.

Blue eyes dashed madly against the diffrent wooden carved caps with strange plants carved on the top.

Katara's mom put wood in the fire, then a pot. Opening the lid, fish stew was boiling.

Katara watched , observing. Tonight was a big dinner, Sokka when out with the men tonight.

Katara's dad said it was a big step for Sokka, but she didn't see the big deal.

"Katara," She looked up at her mother's glowing face, "hand me the pasitly flakes." Katara looked at the different caps, and found something that had the leaf of a pasitly on it.

She handed it to her mother, who said 'thank you'.

Her mother taped the jar once or twice, and handed back to Katara.

"Katara, Please hand me the red snap spice." Katara noded and gave it to her mom.

The smell of the famous 'Fish Spice Paste' met the last water benders nose. "Mmmm!" She gave out a childish shine.

Katara's mother stirred the pot slowly, then she turned to her child. "Now give me the Gisgly leaf bits." Her hand stretched out to the youngest on the floor. She picked up a jar and in the process of handing it to her, Katara dropped it. The glass broke, it's wooden top bounced off the floor and hit the pot.

"Oh no!" Katara herd her mother cry from in front of her, quickly Katara held out her hand trying her best not to let the liquid fall, but her lack of experience froze the forming paste that would have been falling.

Katara fell to her knees crying. "Wha! I ruined the fooood!" She hid her face in her fur parka.

She heard soft chuckles and the sound of breaking ice.

"The men can use this to fish." She smiled. "Now we can use a different spice lets try Hyslop Juice- that should add a kick!" She poured a few drops in the paste.

Katara sniffled. Her mom then turned and picked up the broken glass throwing them in the fire. "Now let's sit and wait for the spices too sit in- I can't wait to test it out!"
