The Furred Man – Half Baked

On your marks… get set… DRINK! Er, I mean BAKE!

Here in the UK, we have one of those pseudo-reality shows that deals with the deeply philosophical subject of baking. Such is the fervour for the Great British Bake Off (hereafter to be known as GBBO) that one of its judges, Mary Berry (whose daughter I once wrote a database for), is to become Queen of Britain should the current monarch pass away.

Auguste was so inspired by the opening episode last week that he went straight into the kitchen and drank a bottle of cooking sherry before anyone knew what was happening. Once we sobered him up, he ‘helped’ the Snail make some delicious Millionaire’s Shortbread. Here’s the evidence:

Mixing it up

Making the base

Base Jumping (er, Food Hygiene issue, surely?)

Eating the Condensed Milk – Auguste!!

Checking the Recipe

Pouring on the Caramel

Mmm… chocolate

The Final Product – delicious!

You’ve earned your glass of wine tonight, Auguste!

oOo
