I'll be completely wrong now

Bye Dan. Well done Octo.

Still sad.

He deserved to go . Bryony definitely deserved star baker!

Thought so.

In a way I will miss his miserable, sarcastic face . . .

Did prue just call him Ben?

Octo is never wrong Fuzzy

She deserved to be commemorated in pie.

That’s nice for Briony. I would have preferred Ruby but what do I know?

Dan wasn’t a pastry man. Sweet that he and KJ have bonded.

VEGAN WEEK!

Now that will make an interesting change - looking forward to that.

Ooh vegan week next week. That's be interesting.

I really wish that Great British Menu and Masterchef had vegetarian options.

The cats are not at all interested in Vegan Week. They sneer at chickpeas.

Oh I might be busy washing my hair next week. ☹️ Young No 3 cat certainly will.

Thanks guys, off now - see you next week!

Lol Fuzzy

We will need a new thread though

Thread spinner! Do yer stuff!

This one has been just the right length.

I'm off for a calming bath...catch you all soon! Thanks for keeping me company.

The power of the lentil is strong in this one . . .

Well You dont want me to start the new thread as it would have Yak and Bleeargh in the title (note to self, must keep open mind about vegan week).

Have a lovely week everyone.

Looking forward to vegan week. Although I'm not vegan it can sometimes difficult to find good tasting dairy free goodies !

@Fuzzy It’s been a delight.

Looking forward to vegan week, I hope it’s not all beans and pulses though. I imagine all MN cats will have a prior engagement.

Me: "Yesss!" Whooping sound
DH dashing in from the kitchen: "Did they send that smug dickhead home?"

“Rice and boiled egg in a pie???!!!”

Yes CowInTheMeadow. It’s a very traditional Russian fish pie

“Oh I might be busy washing my hair next week. Young No 3 cat certainly will.”

Why so sneery at vegan week whatashower? You might be surprised at how good vegan baking can be.

I simply don’t understand the hatred for Dan. DD and I thought he was lovely and not in the least bit smug. Glad Bryony won star baker this week though.

I'm really glad they are doing vegan week.

I'd like to see them tackle gluten-free baking as well. DS is coeliac.

I have been known to post elsewhere on MN whether it's true you can make meringues from chick pea juice, and now I will find out if it really works.
