Oh, and I want to confirm that Scandal in Belgravia is definitely showing in the UK on January 1st. I made a comment on Facebook about the joy giving me a left hand tremor. If you don't get that joke, you won't be the least bit excited by this news.
However, I AM, and so are a whole ton of those who have been waiting since the August before last for this series to arrive. I've only been waiting since April. It's been long enough.
On another note, I made a pie.
Granted, the crust was a bought crust (because I have the family "problem" with pie crust, and I don't have any flour here even if I wanted to make one.)
But I did all the rest of the work. Cooked a can of sweetened condensed milk unopened in water for three hours to thicken it (this was done Tuesday.) Poured it into the cooked crust. Layered bananas in until they literally wouldn't go down in the stuff anymore. Whipped real cream and turned it into whipped cream (ha ha! Didn't know that would happen, did you?) and then shaved a bar of chocolate and scattered shavings over the cream.
This is what it looks like:
Me and my pie!
We'll see if it tastes like anything later tonight when the parents get here. Between 5 and 7. Dummy's downstairs right now (damn he talks so LOUDLY) or I'd dare looking out.
Ta,
Bec
PS: They'll be here in a half-hour. I'll blog more tomorrow :)
