‘The general’s way of taking care of you. Callie took a slow sip, feeling the warmth spread through her body. As a doctor, she knew that cinnamon had anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic properties that could soothe even the fiercest menstrual cramps. Elias had thought of everything. ‘He’s always got surprises up his sleeve,’ Callie murmured, her heart swelling with affection. Wendy chuckled. ‘Yeah, well, he’s a keeper.’ Their light banter was interrupted by the entrance of another figure.

I knew if he was pushing, it was important, whatever it was. As we are running, I keep picking up faint traces of spices. I recognize the spices from my sister Amelie’s baking. One of them is clove; she makes an awesome cinnamon and clove apple pie. I think the other one is cardamon. It stands out because she makes this chi spice coffee cake and the cardamon always smells so good. The two scents together are making me hungry. I don’t know if it’s the smell of the forest; for some reason, the scent makes me happy. There’re other scents mixed in something sickly sweet-smelling, and the other I’ve never smelt before, it’s faint, but it makes me want to know what it is.

"....you can use any bowl of your choice if you do not have a standard mixing bowl," Maya flashed the camera a bright grin before setting the steel bowl down on the counter, "Now, we'll get to mixing our flour, brown sugar...I always prefer using brown sugar rather than white granulated sugar." She waved her hand about, the other still poised over the bowl, "Next, we'll add in our baking soda, then there goes the cinnamon, and oh shit!" The mini pinch bowl containing the ginger fell from her hand, shattering when it landed on the ground. She heard Gab gasp loudly but ignored her, instead crouching down to pick up the broken pieces with a grimace.

While I’m left utterly confused, leaning into her to whisper, “I don’t see how that will make me feel better, unless you are giving me hot milk with it.” Lila remains quiet, the head chef tilts his head to the left, signalling us to follow him. We make a sharp turn, away from the staff and towards the towering shelves of spices. On the lowest shelf with one of the labels being cinnamon, he pushes his fingers underneath and searches for something.

She took a precise pinch between thumb and forefinger. Then farther left—rose hips, brittle and red, crushed beneath her thumb to a fine crumble. She reached for the long-handled spoons—nested in descending order, their handles engraved with faded Dawny script so old she'd had to memorize their meanings. She chose three. A full spoon for the bark. Half for the rose hips. And for the dried violet root she carved from a braid hanging overhead, a measure no larger than a child's fingernail.

I insisted. “Not dangerous.” “They have spikes,” I whispered. We then helped old Mrs. Kline fill bags with spices for mulled wine. I leaned a little too close to the bowl, inhaled deeply, and nearly fell backward. “That is cinnamon,” Elara explained. “It smells like a spell,” I declared. “It is not a spell.” “It smells like one,” I muttered suspiciously. Next came tying bows onto wreaths. I frowned deeply at the red ribbon. “This seems unnecessary.”

“Cinnamon.” “Oh!” Mrs. Baker exclaims. “Yes, we still have some cinnamon left that I got from the grocery store.” She claps her thin hands together, her eyes wide with amazement. “How can you smell it all the way from downstairs, in the kitchen?” Her disbelief is clear. “I better go get something to calm your nerves,” she adds, shaking her head in astonishment before hurrying downstairs. Everyone in the room is staring at me now, their eyes wide and questioning. From their expressions, I can tell they don’t smell it. I must be the only one who can.
