Some mighty-fine architecture in the August pics round-up. And that looks like a pork tenderloin – my mom used to make stuffed pork tenderloins … mmmmm. My favorite photo: “Some days you’re the pigeon, and some days you’re the statue!”
My mom was a good cook – I am not, and sometimes I fondly remember her meals and baking and scold myself for not trying harder. Maybe when I retire and have a little more time. I didn’t recognize the statue … now PM Winston Churchill I would have recognized. I see that saying about the pigeon and the statue all over … memes, teeshirts … it certainly is true some days.
I’ve always found baking is very much about sticking to the recipe and following the instructions specifically. Cooking you can get away with mixing things up a little bit but baking is far more precise I think
My mother always made the means and told me when I needed to cook, if I could read a cookbook, I could cook. Well, I’ve burned slice-and-bake cookies. I may have a deficient gene somewhere.
Omg!!! Was that pork?

Poor man… I’m glad I’ll never be esteemed at anything since that’s what the outcome appears to be. 😋
