In apartment 1801, where they worked side by side, each contributing half the ingredients to the cause. To prevent the crust and filling from freezing, they kept a lively coal fire burning.
Jasper contributed the coal while Rosie helped, and Stella provided generous helpings of chives, cabbage, and parsley.
