Before Ashley could voice her agreement, Kreacher came into view to offer her a plate of oddly-shaped cookies. They were baked with an experimental recipe, he claimed. Admittedly, that little tidbit made Ashley kind of nervous, but she was comforted by the fact that the house-elf would never even dream of poisoning her. Sirius, maybe, but not her. So, she willingly accepted the cookies and brought them up to her room to snack on while she unpacked.
