NOVEMBER BAKING SESSION!


Dear all,

Hope this email finds you well and not too stressed!

Many thanks to all those who took part last month. It was great fun to get started, and I hope you saw the photos of the bake on our blog. Last month's draw winners, Yi and Bjorn, took home a veritable mountain of buns and pretzels, so just remember, this month...it could be you!

LATEST KITCHEN NEWS: St. Cross will not allow use of their kitchens, so I had a look at Wolfson's Buttery, which is rentable. Unfortunately, though the space is certainly larger, the oven is smaller, and inferior to my own, probably ok for heating stuff up and making a baked potato but that's about as far as I would go. Also, no other devices are there on site. 

Thus I am afraid we will have to continue as we are with small sessions at my home, (limit 6 people), until/unless we can come up with another option. 

Fortunately, St. Cross is prepared to help with buying some items of equipment so I will be drawing up a list and hopefully that will get sorted out soon. Bundt tin, anyone?

THIS MONTH'S BAKING SESSION DATE is SATURDAY 17th of NOVEMBER. Reply asap to get your place. 

PROPOSED BAKE: A Sweet Pie! It's that time of year, when the cold weather inspires a bite of warm pastry and filling. Once you have a place on the baking session, we will choose our filling between us: expensive pecan? classic apple? perhaps a challenging cherry? or something totally different? Our bakers will decide.
