Meg Cabot Quote

But who cooks it? I asked, imaging an underground kitchen staffed by tiny, invisible chefs. Who serves it?I don't know, he said, with a disinterested shrug.I couldn't help laughing. John, food magically appears here three times a day, and you don't know where it comes from? You've been here for almost two hundred years. Haven't you ever tried to find out?He shot me a sarcastic look of his own. Of course. I have theories. I think it's part of the compensation for the job I do, since there isn't any pay. But there's room and board. Anything I've ever wanted or needed badly enough usually appears, eventually. For instance-he sent one of those knee-melting smiles in my direction-you.I swallowed. The smile made it astonishingly hard to follow the conversation, even though I was the one who'd started it. Compensation from whom?He shrugged again. It was clear this was something he didn't care to discuss. I have passengers waiting. For now, here. He lifted the lid of a platter. I highly recommend these.I don't know what I expected to see when I looked down...a big platter of pomegranates? Of course that wasn't it at all.Waffles?
