Abby’s triumphant voice heralded the arrival of the twins at the kitchen door, and Jake glanced up from the pot he was stirring to grin at them. “Hello, ladies.” They simultaneously dumped their knapsacks on the floor and joined him. “What are you doing here?” Abby peeked into the pot. “And where’s Aunt Maggie?” “She’s in bed with the flu. I’m making her some soup.” “You’re cooking?” Allison was clearly impressed.
