Out of nowhere

came Rain!
It had been nice up until about a minute ago
I even walked to the shops without a coat
this morning,
and now rain. More rain.
It never seems to stop.
Tomorrow Gebke and I are going to enjoy a 
days 'mini holiday ' so very much hoping 
for at the very least a dry day, please?
At the moment I am in bake-off mood
trying out Paul Hollywood's recipe
for my all-time favourite
CUSTARD TARTS.
I've made them before but to other recipes using 
single cream etc but this was just milk and eggs.
They don't look too great so no photo!
but so long as they taste great I will be satisfied.
I watch it on Sundays so no idea how they
fared yesterday.
But it was cookies and biscuits I think and I 
just love baking those!
It is all part of my stress-busting strategy actually.
Filling in application forms day in day out,
which take hours if you apply in the UK,
and then finding other activities that one 
must do to fulfil the criteria for the cash -
whilst all the time thinking
"give me a chance"
and not really believing that anyone will.
Sort of soul destroying which is where the
baking comes in.
Always therapeutic 
and since that is my trade....
better put it to good use on myself, right?!
Have a good one yourselves.
