Ok, honestly?

Ok, honestly? Who has chervil anymore? I'm gonna slap the next recipe that shows up with this as an ingredient, I swear. #whinywhinyprincess

An attempt at Reine de Saba.

An attempt at Reine de Saba. The torte itself worked very well, but the ganache coating got lots of annoying air bubbles in it. I haven't had that happen before, and while it's probably my fault, I am blaming the Guittard, which I had to use because I couldn't get Valrhona. The taste and texture were exactly what they were supposed to be, though, so I'll live. #whinywhinyprincess

Bloody weather. Heavy overcast, steady, pouring rain. I swear I have a PTSD equivalent from living here.

Everything tastes like zinc, or something.

Everything tastes like zinc, or something.  Everything being tea and chicken broth and one attempt at bread with a little cheese melted on it.  But it's commercial chicken broth; there should be, like, a gazillion mgs of sodium in it, and yet I taste none.  If tasting metal made you better, I'd go out on the porch and start licking the railings right now.   #whinywhinyprincess
