Ta All
Pie party was ace - even the stress wasn't too bad really. and there aren't many pies left now at all which is scarey as there were millions. special pie honours go to mof for her WWE belt pie, Alex for pie with gadgetry, Ian for his first ever pie (and it wasn't cherry ;) ) and geof/kath for very silly marshmallow pies.
particular thanks go to Geof, Spider, Ian and Red for tidying up afterwards and to everyone who embarked on their own pie-baking oddessy. there was a point in time where my kitchen was like a hiterto undiscovered circle of hell, reserved for those who hate pastry ;)
there were 5 fruit crumbles. 5! and all of them different! excellent.
sorry to anyone I overlooked/didn't spend enough time with - parties are stressful things - I tend to go into hostess overdrive mode and become extremely flitty.
black tag grading didn't go super shiningly - won't find out if I passed until tomorrow - I wouldn't be suprised if he failed me as I suspect he may be less forgiving these days and black tag is a serious concept. hey ho - am attempting not to worry about it too much.
Got to sort out some holiday insurance this week - and buy extra socks and pants and start packing. only a week and a half to go. EEEEEK!
