Did I not tell you guys? Before I got here, I was trying to teach the unintelligent inhabitants of Rukus (since apparently that's where I was) how to grow soybeans to use for food/fuel. They weren't very interested.
BUT, when I came here, I brought with me the transportable garden that I've been developing-fruits and veggies that are grown in an ultra concentrated nutritient base that is ideal for growing plants on spaceships (or space-trees). Many veggies, very little space. I commandeered one of the storage rooms off the cargo bay and turned it into my greenhouse. I'm growing enough produce to feed a good 30-40 people. Why trade brides and moonshine for food when you can just grow your own? And my grapes make wonderful wine.
There's fresh bao in the kitchen if anyone's hungry. And muffins.
And you thought all I was good for was movie selection. ")
PsychicRiver-very nice to meet you. I'd love a hat.
Montana-I thought I was sitting between Simon and Soul. Confused I am.
Ath-BE CAREFUL! Our mother will never forgive me if you get killed by space pirates!

*Starving, jake7 races to the greenhouse to snag some tomatoes. She sits on the floor eating them like apples, tomato juice dripping down her face.*
Oh, wonderful, wonderful tomatoes!!!
I think the last thing I ate was some pie...and that was quite some time ago!!

*Praying Molly keeps her beak shut, cozen sneakily avoids Jake7's attention while he makes his escape from the greenhouse storage closet.*
Phew! Got lucky there!
*Turns about a little too quickly and smacks into CallMeSerenity, knocking her flat on her back! Several luscious strawberries tumble to the floor. Molly hops off and chomps on a particularly juicy specimen.*
OH! Serenity! Can I call you Serenity? I, ah, was walking... y'know... walking Molly through the nice garden and... for Mai, cuz, um... strawberries is nice!
Here. Let me help you up....
*As he bends down he inadverdently releases several pounds of grapes, apples, oranges, pomegranates and bananas from beneath his shirt. Sure enough, almost all of these smack on to various bits of CMS.*
Huh.
For... er, fruit punch, for Mai... I mean the crew. Yeah, punch. Fruit. Fruit punch.

Any dignified and graceful way out of this?

Its nice to meet you too, Serenity. Thanks for the goodies! I'll get started on that Jayne hat.
And punch does sound like a good idea! But he's lying. When we get back to earth, we should have a party. With punch. And Jayne hats.

No! No, I'm actually standing. Y'see, she's lying. On the floor. All covered and splattery-like with juicy... fruits.
So

COZEN!!!!!
*Serenity picks herself up and glares at Cozen*
There is no need to steal food, there's enough for everyone! Don't make me have to keep the door to the greenhouse locked!
*she glares again and Cozen has the decency to look slightly abashed.*
Now grab a mop, you're cleaning up this mess. And then, if you're a good boy, I'll make you some yummy fruit salad. After I go change, that is.

I have no idea how to make bolognese, but I brought some flour with me(I made muffins.) We can make our own pasta. We should have enough to last until we get to earth, if it doesn't take toooo long.

I like that idea. Nothing says a party like punch and Jayne hats!!

Psychic-I can help with the party. I agree-we need a floating chandelier (I think the spelling's right). Question is-where do we get one?
