Dream; Coming war and flying horse?

It was a forest. I was there with my sister Lee. We came across chocolate cake, and she kept making this cake and then this chocolate pudding by scratch, and I wanted her to show the recipes. There was a sort of cabin that we could stay in, but really it was like a hostel. But I have no idea what a hostel is like. But it was a cabin for people to stay in, a big cabin with two floors and hallways. And it was like it was for refugee American youth, or maybe some Europeans too? I don't know. A bunch of hippy youth though, of the rich variety, like you'd find in Boulder.

When we left it was extremely windy. We were in a field in the mountains, a bunch of dead trees surrounded us, and the wind was blowing them over. They were creaking and entire trees were falling, and entire branches from high up, but huge huge branches. We had to be careful they didn't fall on us. They were flying through the field too.

Then President Martinez was there, from the TV show The Event, and then that guy who is his adviser, little guy with "I've been betrayed" issues, he was actually the vice president. And of course I was me with my sister, and I was also him. He rode a flying horse, and I don't remember what was happening, something dangerous. He kept showing up where the president was, like when he went to the store, and the president knew he couldn't trust anyone, and he was afraid to trust the vice president, afraid he was being followed. He didn't know who to trust. I tried to reassure him that I was loyal, and that I understood why he didn't trust me, but I had perfectly innocent reasons for being in places he was even when I said I'd be somewhere else ('the flying horse reminded me I didn't take my medicine, I had to come get it'). The problem was it then morphed into a plot in which I knew I had no control, as though I were a TV character who would have to follow a script (even though it was all real), and maybe in the future they'd write me in as a betrayer. And I had no idea what I'd actually do, so my assurance only went so far as I realized maybe he shouldn't trust me. I didn't know.

I then left them and became myself again, back in the campground near that cabin, with Lee, asking her to show me how to make the cake and the pudding, in case I ever needed to do it on my own to survive. I guess I thought a war was coming or something?

Overall, ridiculously strange.
