Today there were only 6 of the originals left, coping with increasingly difficult challenges - choux pastry and Religeuses. Choux pastry! I hardly ever bake with it because it's such mincing awful stuff. Not only that, they were in the Technical challenge bit, so - little in the way of depth in the instructions. And then puff pastry - and mille feuilles. Tricky stuff. Tricky stuff against the clock with the judges strolling around being - judgemental. How glad I am to sit, drink tea and watch rather than be involved.
Not a Blanket - pastry being prepared. |
Those Damn Logic Puzzles!
I'm up to number 27 out of over 300, managing about two of every three. Conrad finds the challenge interesting, if not a little beguiling. A success inspires wanting to manage just another one - and then it's half ten at night.
Is there time for one last - No! There's a blog to get through!

Next Time It Rains
Just think of those poor unfortunates on Saturn. Herewith the link:

A storm as big as Europe? And it looks like one of the lower depths of Hades. Even though it's cold. Very very cold.
Ah, nearly eleven o'clock. Conrad - unlike you whippersnappers - needs his beauty sleep. Farewell!
