Lemon twisty


(Frozen liquid poppyseed sable, yuzu curd, vanilla ice-cream, elderflower jelly, meringue)

This here is a quick sub-post, to show a few more pictures relevant to the previous post. I normally don’t replate and retake pictures, but it’s been bugging me that I didn’t quite get a proper picture the first time round, and this dessert has been on my mind all week. It’s twisty nature reminds me of how conflicted I currently feel about work. I mean, I love work, but I also don’t love work. But I love work more than I don’t love it, y’know. If that makes sense to anyone at all.

I also realised I forgot to mention a couple of things. Firstly, Sneh of Gel’s Kitchen featured me in her ten questions series (thanks Sneh). If you’re new to Gel’s Kitchen, you might want to read her post on her ten fondest food memories and check out a very yummy looking recipe for potato proscuitto matzo balls.

Less recently, I wrote a review of one of my all-time favourite baking books for The Gastronomer’s Bookshelf, run by Mark (No Special Effects) and Duncan (Syrup & Tang). Look to this site for news on the latest cookbook releases and for reviews for all those cookbooks you’ve been eyeing but have been unsure about buying (we all have a list of those, don’t we?).

Hope everyone is having a fabulous weekend!

    Yeah, I have noticed that sometimes you’re not on Twitter! HA! 🙂 As long as there’s parts of it you love, then it’s totally worth it, isn’t it? For the record, I loved the first pic too, heh. Thanks for the linkylove!

    I have the same twisty feeling about work, although the “not love” beats out the “love” after weeks like this one :/ And I’m with Manggy – the first pic was beautiful too!

    What a stunner! And I missed the last post while away, so seeing these delicious flavours together made my day. Thanks for the linking to the sites too, Y!

    Such an artistic pallette these sculptural sweets. Just beautiful. At least there are some things you like about work 🙂

    I didn’t think it was possible, but these shot do look even more beautiful than the first. 🙂

    I meant to ask how the new job is going! I think a lot of people have a love/hate relationship with work sadly but it sounds like you at least love it!

    It’s good to see the interview, so many things you wouldn’t normally mention. I agree about the wooden spoon, it’s one thing that never breaks down.

    I love them all, but these photos have a sense of rhythm and movement.

    you are a perfectionist, and there’s nothing wrong with that. can’t get enough of your beautiful pictures anyway.

    I don’t have a sweet tooth — when reading food blogs I usually skip over to the next entry if it’s not savoury. But I can’t stop reading your blog. Everything you’ve made is beautiful, creative, and technically astounding. Pardon my gushing but I’m just really, really impressed.
