Have been watching old junior bake offs on I player since seeing the adverts to get me back in the mood :)

Did anyone watch the su2c specials? I do wonder how Bill Turnbull is doing Sad

Counting the minutes. I wish there were more programmes like this on the telly. Real Life is so over-rated.

Deffo picking up something yummy on the way home.
Have been watching the old seasons on Netflix to get in the mood, though frustrated by bingate and doing her alevels.

placemarking! :)

So excited for this! Me and the dh have a tradition that on bake off night, we have to have somthing for dinner or dessert that matches that weeks challenge. Cause it's the first week we treated ourselves to fancy Mille fuilles from patisserie Valerie.

We did savoury sausage onion and cheese bread and butter pudding for dinner last year for bread week. It's an absolute winning autumn winter dinner!

QuitMoaning · 28/08/2018 19:19

I adore GBBO even though I utterly hate cake and pastry, avoid bread and rarely eat biscuits.
Can’t think of a single thing that is made that I can eat apart from cheesecake (have they made cheesecake?)

Love the program.
