"What shall we do this morning?" asked Tirucub. He was a little restless now that the "swamis" had left town (or so everyone thought).
"I have an idea!" said Spotty. "Let's make something delicious for Andavane!"
"Something he has never tried before!" said Omcub.
"Pizza!" said Arunacub. "Mum Lioness, will you help us? This is going to need the oven ..."
"Bhagavan is the one who knows everything about cooking," said Mum Lioness.
And so they assembled all the ingredients under Bhagavan's watchful eye.
Mum Lioness showed them how to knead the pizza dough, which was quite tricky to work with and tended to stick to everyone's paws. Bhagavan made various suggestions about fresh herbs that were needed to improve the flavour. The cubses dashed about on Arunachala finding them. It was obvious Bhagavan wanted the pizza to be very tasty for his beloved Andavane.
When it was popped in the oven they all stood about waiting for it to be ready.
"When will it be ready?" Omcub whispered to Arunacub.
"Soon, I hope!"
At last Mum Lioness took it out of the oven. "Stand back! Don't get burned!"
The cheese was bubbling and it smelled delicious.
"Now take it down to Palakottu carefully before it cools," said Mum Lioness.
(And we hope Spotty will tell the story of the four cubses giving the pizza to Andavane.)

the final pic ommst looks like Stripes is trying to grab the entire pizza, and Mum Lioness is trying to block him. and the cubs are wundering will we get any at this rate?
well, shoaly mum lioness would only block stripes since the cheese was bubbling and could burn the palate.
Stripes had never seen a pizza before (or so it seemed, from his amazement, though we have yet to hear the full story of Stripes' past) ... He was getting a paw dangerously close to that bubbling cheese so I had to shoulder him back just a touch. He took it in the right spirit!
love, Mum Lioness
