Here we are

Pumpkin pie is not a citrus pie!

I think Jane is firm def finalist.

Jane and Bmin are my favourites.
Rav is looking shaky

That's bright, Jane. Her meringue looked great.

Candice's looked awful.

So Bmin and Jane did well. Selasi and Andrew ok. The rest not great.

Agree that Rav or McGann are looking at the shove today.

Poor Tom is afflicted with resting angry face

I am now going to have some ginger chocolate. Aldi's. So good.
Handily comes in small bars, 5 to to a pack. So So I can eat 2 or 3, as I see fit.

I love pumpkin pie and I've made a pumpkin version of carrot cake which is delicious.

I agree it is in no way a citrus fruit.

This is such a shit theme.

Next week, flour week

I love love love fougasse. I should really try to make some.

They're making 14 of them things?

I like Jane too.

Paul always sounds so smug when he sets the technical.

Rav.surely on borrowed time?

My mum makes a pumpkin strudel with walnuts. I can eat tons of it.

ooh , not had fougasse - what is it like?

I have actually made fougasse before. It was surprisingly edible.

Like a crispier focaccia.

no 2 each, so 14 in total! I've never heard of it. Looks nice though

thanks Chardonnay

Jane's looks thick

I think they're making two each, Rousette.

I make fougasse too. People seem oddly impressed by the shape.
You do need to pull apart the holes a bit, else they bake shut. I predict some closed up bread holes.

I do like when they agonise over how something 'should' look. I remember the tennis cakes where not one had the lines right

Tom's the only one that looks like one so far.

oh- can I have the recipe Spotted , pretty please?

Ooooooo like the prooving (is that a word?) bags
