Thanks for the update warning. And the heat? I was on a green line train the other day, talking to a guy from St. Louis, who said he couldn’t wait to get home where it was hot….
That Jamie Oliver thing looks good, but oven for an hour and a half? I might try the toaster oven. Outside

Russian women need to be ruling the world, they obviously don’t stand for any nonsense!
Oh, my. That doll house is very… very… uh… something.
Hehehehe, caketastrophe. Love it.
And thank you (I think) for the recipe links. I’ve snagged a few. But I’m trying VERY HARD to avoid the crème brûlée links. I’m a sucker for crème brûlée, and every time I see yummy home made caramelized goodness I have to convince myself to NOT BUY A BRULEE TORCH. (I know, there are other ways to do it. But why would you want to when you can play with fire?)
That is a very sad demise of a Little Free Library. 🙁 My cousin had theirs knocked off its support, but it was still otherwise intact so they were able to put it back together. People do mean things. 🙁
