I’ve received another messages from British Gas about fixing my (non existent) smart meter. I’m concerned by the over emphasis of ‘be reassured it’s us who will message from a different number’. Is scamming getting very sophisticated?

This is blue sky

Like so many others. You’ll probably find me over there now. I don’t want to be on a platform where I can’t block, tweets likes by bots and endlessly removing fake followers.

It was very nice so thanks for the recipe. I did re ready the recipe after and custard was 4 yolks and 3 whites. By force of habit I just added 4 whites. So it didn’t set quite as well as it could. But it did taste delicious.

Tonight I saw (and performed with) the brilliant @hornesection at @CityVarieties. Huge respect the lady in the audience who heard there were two empty seats on front row and came on interval to ask to use them, and then won a task (and let me pose with it!).

Thats what I read to. I’ve heard furvant arguments that more dice get removed if more players dice and not just one. The rules are ambiguous in original print and there are many arguments on BGG

For context this will be shared. The recipe had it in a smaller dish. I didn’t feel that looked likely lol. So much bigger than I expected it to be!

For #GBBOTwitterBakeAlong I’ve made GF tiramisu from @GFAlchemist1 recipe. The Savoiardi Biscuits were simple enough to make. I didn’t realise it wasn’t cream but an egg/mascarpone mix. It prob wanted another hour to set but I wanted some now! @thebakingnanna1 @Rob_C_Allen

Does the passing rule make sense this time? It’s the only game my group ever fell out over! And BgG threads were full of arguments about it too.

@duolingo getting this weird bug on iOS which eventually leads to app crashing. To recreate open app, tap treasure chest tab. Then scroll down to daily quests iOS 17.6.1, iPhone 13 Pro Duolingo version 7.46.0

This is why I don’t think I’ll last on Twitter! Posting things and getting likes out of nowhere from clearly fake accounts. I’ve given up removing fake followers now too!

I ate one 15 mins ago and I can still taste orange. It’s another recipe I’ve butchered from other recipes but will definitely do again. Thinking lemon could would as well.

I’ve taken protection off for now so things can be shared. Will have to decide if want to stay here once GBBO over.

For #GbboTwitterBakeAlong I’ve made chocolate orange frangipane tarts. I added zest to the pastry, a bit of juice to the frangipane and topped with choc orange buttons! These do taste really good and very orangey! @thebakingnanna1 @Rob_C_Allen

I found my old pic of when I attempted it! This is in my wheat flour days. I’ll be honest it wasn’t as bad I thought it would be. Just very time consuming. I did not use a pasta roller like the bakers did!

I’ve made spanakopita in the past. One of the last gluten things I’ve made. Don’t know if I dare try filo without gluten! Expect frangipane from me!

I struggled with instagram when I tried it years ago. Felt much more ‘perfection’ than the all abilities baking we encourage. I’m not on Facebook either. Seems most folk from my other hobbies are on blue sky. But I don’t know if I’ve energy to start social media again!

It very noticeable. To much here is different now. Like I tweet someone and suddenly I get loads of likes of profile of women not wearing much and a name/numbers username. It’s just becoming unusable.

Ah sorry. It’s the new policies on here that blocking won’t work in the same way. Sadly once GBBO is done I might be done with Twitter as I don’t like that policy at all. Setting to private was only way to protect things now :-(
