With both hands holding the handles before her, Vela carried the large basket with the food and paused to indicate the blanket be spread beside Mr. Blackwood. Once it was in place, she sat down across from Edward and put the basket beside her. She motioned to have the pitchers and glasses on the other side.
With a smile, she indicated the ladies. "The ladies and I have brought you something to eat for luncheon. Enough for you as well, Angus." She added. She then began to pull out the plates to set them out and putting food from each container from the basket into each plate. She took her time making sure the smell of the dishes had time to wave over in Edward's direction (likely Angus's way as well). Her plating of each item was carefully done so that nothing touched to anything else on the plate, in case he had a problem with that, some did. Small portions, so not to overwhelm him, and with an attention to how it looked on the plate.
Putting silverware next to the plate with a napkin, she sat the meal next to Edward. Then did the same, using the same methods, for a plate for Angus, and handing it to him.
