Cupcakes!!
2 out of three is good, right? Though I think the milk is a little iffy.
I have flour though!
You have butter? You can make biscuits! Assuming the milk isn't actually bad. Ooh, maybe I'll make cheese biscuits.
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

The basic recipe for cheesecake that has been on the back of the name brand graham cracker box forever is still one of the best cheescake recipes around. Brain fart as to actual brand name; but you know the one I mean.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
You can make biscuits!
I could, but now I want IHOP, and I have outside pants on. I think IHOP, some cleaning, making up a grocery list (I'm going to make black bean soup this week), nap, and then grocery store sounds like a very good plan for the day.

Cheese, we've got plenty of. Just no milk.
Cupcakes are individual frosted cakes baked in muffin tins. (I suppose the frosting is technically optional, but it lets you differentiate between a cupcake and a merely cakey muffin.)
I don't know what a fairy cake is -- from the name, I'm guessing it's similar to angel food cake, or chiffon?
[eta: And Wikipedia says that fairy cakes and cupcakes are the same thing!. So there we are.]

Goodness, Perkins, I didn't realize you already had outside pants on! Then it would be a shame to waste them. Yay IHOP.

Can you not bake with soymilk?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hmm. Cakey muffins. Are cupcakes. I'm not sure how to rigourously define muffin, but I know when when I eat one. It's probably a sugar/fibre thing.
Don't usually have milk in the house, not regular, from the cow. Right now, I have buttermilk in the freezer, waiting for the next pancake outing, soy milk, rice milk, and heavy whipping cream (for tea and coffee). I do often use the rice milk in place of regular milk when baking.

Aha! I only need sour cream and perhaps bittersweet chocolate for the cupcakes themselves. Semisweet chocolate and heavy cream for the ganache.
I haven't baked in yonks. Probably since the concussion. It's weird what things become too much effort.

OK, I don't actually have milk, but I have half-and-half, which I water down for cooking. It works out.
And of course, right this minute I don't even have that, but it's only because I emptied the carton into my coffee, and I'll go to the grocery store later.

OMG, shutup! I am totally dying for cupcakes now.
Also, I couldnt live without milk. I drink about a litre a day. And lets just not mention the cheese.
Jars is me, though I drink slightly less milk these days.
I am still exhausted from cleaning yesterday. I am such a wimp.
