As I said, baking is therapy
Apr. 13th, 2021 05:57 pmSo, after emptying the last shelf of the unsteady book cabinet (and climbing onto a ladder in the process, which is a nightmare for me) and a food run in steadily falling rain, I baked this today:

Or rather another cherry cake with chocolate drops exactly like this one. With the only difference being the flaked almonds on top of today's cake. It's a quick and easy bake, with excellent results. Mum and I agreed that after all the excitement of the recent days we deserved to indulge ourselves a bit.
Other than that, I talked to two other retired colleagues on the phone, which was nice. As usual, today a massive GBBO marathon is planned. Thank God for baking shows. What else would I watch on the telly otherwise?
In unrelated yet unhappy news: it's rained all day and the balcony is leaking again. *sigh*
