I am enjoying this new series just as much as the first one - it's so genteel & a joy to watch :happy: And yet they manage to get some genuine tension in there too.

Just wish I could actually bake stuff. About the only thing I do is flapjacks & I like my flapjacks but hubby always says they're too hard *sigh*

I really enjoy this programme I pick up lots of helpful tips on it. I love baking brownies.

I'm enjoying this too. They have made some lovely things. I'd love to be able to jump into the telly and taste them.

I'm looking forward to the bread one next week. I got a Panasonic bread maker a few weeks ago and I've been having great fun making lots of different breads. I don't think they'll be just bunging their ingredients into a machine though! lol

My middley told me they had a thing going on today on Radio 1 about how many times they said the words 'tart' and 'bottom' last night.
Well, at least she's taking an interest....

Yes they were rather obsessed with soggy bottoms last night, one of my favourite programs at the moment!

Hubby rolled his eyes at me last week & said it's just MasterChef...and the proceeded to watch it with me...and he watched last night's too LOL Haven't decided who might win yet, but I'm hoping the twerp who doesn't plan his time & knocked his cake off last week goes soon. What he produces turns out to taste good & it saves him.

And can I have one of those Tart Au Citrones they made last night please...mmmmmmmm...

I love this show, there is something quintessentially very British about it.

Have to say I wouldn't kick that Paul Hollywood out of my kitchen either !!
