The sixth day of Christmas

"Butter?" Alice asked, reading from an old recipe book. Jasper placed a tub of butter down on the kitchen counter, "Sugar?"

He placed a bag of sugar next to the butter with a nod, "Plain flour?" The flour joined the other ingredients, "Six eggs?"

Jasper opened the fridge with a frown. Rummaging right to the back he produced a box of eggs, "Will goose eggs do?"

Alice looked at the book. It simply stated 'Eggs'. "I'm sure it'll be okay."

Jasper placed the eggs down on the counter, "Anything else?"

"Nope, that's it." Alice said with a smile, grabbing a bowl from under the worktop. She looked at the recipe, "'Cream together the butter and sugar'." She looked at the recipe and frowned, "What does that mean? Do I add cream? That wasn't on the ingredients list."

After a quick Google search, Alice was smiling and mixing the ingredients together. Jasper cracked the six goose eggs into the bowl and Alice stirred them in. Next they added flour and mixed it into a dough. Another Google search taught Alice how to knead the dough and then she put it in the fridge to chill.

She sat on top of the kitchen worktop and watched the fridge. Jasper came and stood in front of her, "Remind me why we're doing this?"

"Because baking is fun!" Alice exclaimed, "And it's Christmas!" Jasper raised an eyebrow, "They're Christmas biscuits."

"But we can't eat them, Darlin'." He pointed out.

"Details." Alice said with a flick of her hand.

A while later she took the dough out of the fridge and grabbed a rolling pin. It took her several attempts to get it the right thickness, but she managed it in the end. She grabbed a knife and began cutting the dough into different shapes; a Christmas tree, a reindeer, Santa, a stocking, an elf, a candy cane. She put the biscuits in the oven and left them for ten minutes.

She took them out and beamed at how golden they looked. She went about decorating the biscuits with icing and melted chocolate, sprinkles and candy. When she was done she showed Jasper with pride. He smiled, "They look lovely, Alice."

Alice glowed at his praise, grinning up at him, "Really?"

He nodded, "What are you going to do with them now?"

Alice thought for a moment, then her face lit up with an idea. She sped off and returned a minute later carrying a wicker basket lined with red and white checked cloth. She piled the biscuits up into the basket and then took Jaspers hand, leading him outside.

They walked into Forks, enjoying the snow that landed softly on their skin without making them cold. Once there, Alice proceeded to knock on every door, offering round the biscuits along with some Christmas spirit. She was met with smiles as people saw the carefully decorated biscuits. Some offered her money for them, but she just laughed her sleigh-bell laugh and told them it was a gift. "Merry Christmas!" She'd call over her shoulder as she skipped away, leaving them on their doorstep holding money in their hands.

They'd gone to every house in Forks and there were a few biscuits left, so they put them out for the birds to eat. Jasper smiled at his wife, "That was a really nice thing for you to do."

"I like seeing people happy." She said, "It's such a small gesture but it brings them joy."

"I wish we ate," Jasper said, "So I could taste your cooking."

Alice smiled, "Well..."

She produced two biscuits from her pocket. Jasper hadn't noticed her making or decorating these, but he recognised them instantly; one was a boy, amber eyed with honey blonde hair and a cowboy hot. The other a girl, a lot shorter than the boy with a black pixie cut and a pair of killer heels. Jasper smiled as Alice offered him a biscuit, "There's no harm in trying them."

Both took a bite of their biscuits, instantly pulling faces and spitting it back out. Jasper laughed and Alice pouted, "Is that how bad my cooking is?"

"I'm sure they tasted delicious to a human." Jasper assured her. Alice joined in his laughter now.

"It would be nice to try the human 'luxuries'. Chocolate, ice cream, candy." She commented.

Jasper froze as he heard something in the distance. Bears. "I have something equally as delicious in mind..."

In a flash, the two were off, dashing through the snow in silence towards their next meal.

~On the sixth day of Christmas my true love gave to me, Six Geese A-Laying.~
