Stories Wiki/Dinner Rush

I was panicking. My family was coming over for Thanksgiving dinner in 30 minutes, and I wasn't even close to ready. I had cooked most of the food the day prior and stored it in my refrigerator, but I had no dessert or decorations. I stopped to think. It hit me. I would use my dad's cheesecake recipe. The only problem was that I didn't have everything I needed. However, I had a solution to that problem too. I would just substitue some things. I put honey in place of sugar, and I mixed in flour with the corn syrup, since I was running out. I put it in the oven. While it cooked, I decorated the house. Some hand turkeys plastered all over the house would do it. When the cheesecake was finished cooking, I took it out of the oven, and...it looked like a cheesy mess. I should have known that some things may not serve the same purpose as others. I didn't have time to bake another dessert, however, so when my family came over, I served them the cheesecake-gone-wrong, fearing that they would hate it. To my surprise, everyone enjoyed it. "Just delicious," "Exquisite," and "I gotta have more!" were just some of the things said. Sometimes in life, experimenting with ideas can make you a great success.
