Place your character in the kitchen, ready to bake a cake or dessert of
your choice. What is the occasion? How much time does he have? Is he
following a recipe? Does he know how to bake? Now have something go
wrong. Perhaps adding the wrong ingredients or setting off the smoke
detector. What is your character's response?Then, have a second thing go wrong. How does he respond now? Is he alone in the kitchen? Is he trying to surprise someone or impress another? Think about the emotions behind your character's baking struggles. Is there something else going on that just makes him too distracted to focus, or is it another emotion tied to the process like loss, frustration, or expectation?
