“Make the apple huckleberry pies,” Tess said.
“I’m just about to start the pecan pie Mr. Donaldson ordered.”
Logan moved out of her way as she put a tray of cookies in the
oven. “The Groovy Grans will be here soon.”

Annie washed her hands and nodded. She lifted
a container of sugar onto the counter and measured flour and baking
powder into a bowl.

He watched Annie and Tess move around the
kitchen, adding random ingredients to bowls. “Where are your recipe
books?”

Annie grinned. “We don’t need them, not for
the regular recipes anyway.”

Logan poured another batch of pancake batter
onto the griddle. “I’m going to need more pancake mix.”

“Already on it,” Tess said. She left a bowl
of batter beside him. “I’ll just check the café.”

She walked out of the room and Logan watched
Annie roll out the pie crusts.

Annie smiled. “You must have done something
really nice for Tess.”

“Because she’s not growling at me?”

“You noticed?” She looked over at the kitchen
door. “We had a really late night last night. I’m surprised she
made it in here on time.”

“Where did you go?”

“Ennis.” The beeper on the oven went off and
Annie took the scones out.

Logan laughed as he flipped the pancakes. “I
wouldn’t have thought there’d be a whole lot of action happening in
Ennis on a Friday night.”

Annie started peeling a bowl of apples. “You
are so wrong. We had a great time. Molly and Tess hadn’t tasted
moonshine before. Willie’s Distillery makes the best legal
moonshine ever. Just don’t mention their bourbon whiskey to Sally
when you next see her.”

“She liked it too much?”

“Enough to buy a few bottles to bring home.
Can you pass me two of the lemons beside you?”

Logan looked along the counter and handed
Annie the lemons. He heard the distant roar of motorcycle engines
and checked how many pancakes he’d made.

Annie dropped the half-peeled apple in her
bowl and raced over to a set of cupboards. “They’re early. They
don’t usually arrive for another fifteen minutes.” She started
lifting out glasses, putting them on trays and moving into the
café.

The kitchen door opened and Tess headed
straight across to the fridge. “The Groovy Grans are down the
street. Keep those pancakes coming, Logan. I’ll be back soon.” She
took two jugs of juice into the café and he looked around the
kitchen.

If it had been a calm oasis when he arrived,
it wasn’t now. And with the amount of noise coming from the street,
it wasn’t about to get any better.
