This was for the 'infodump' skirmish, but my old recipe for chocolate babka took me somewhere very different.
Lyrics
Perhaps Tomorrow
Jemma Kline
It’s after midnight, and she’s still shaking,
And I know I’ll soon be cooking by myself.
Warm up the oven for nighttime baking;
Perhaps tomorrow we will find that all is well.
Heat up the water, then yeast goes in.
Mix in the flour, rest in a tin.
Chop up some butter and chocolate chips.
Roll it together, she’ll rise again.
Outside the window, the stars are shining,
Signs the two of us will always be in love,
But we were fighting for half the evening,
And we are not the ones the stories tell you of.
Heat up the water, then yeast goes in.
Mix in the flour, rest in a tin.
Chop up some butter and chocolate chips.
Roll it together, she’ll rise again.
(flute)
Twenty minutes at three-fifty; not enough to ensure we'll find our way.
Heat up the water, then yeast goes in.
Mix in the flour, rest in a tin.
Chop up some butter and chocolate chips.
Roll it together, she’ll rise again.

These lines were a real standout to me: 'But we were fighting for half the evening,
And we are not the ones the stories tell you of.'
