Exploring, failing, backtracking, just to identify the only viable path forward. And then scarred, stumbling forward into the future. Learning.
Boring and steady. Knowing little and questioning a lot. Mostly harmless.

This is an experimental scrapbook space. A collection of stuff I want to keep in a form somewhere on the spectrum between a blog and a shoe-box full of scraps, cut-outs, quotes, links and reading notes and sometimes my own silly thoughts about them.
Perhaps it might be of marginal interest to others too, but I don't care that much.

Basque cheese cake - near perfect after ca 6 iterations now. This was my own birthday treat.
#cakeposting is the today's hashtag indeed. Here's a tender quark cheesecake in a yeast dough crust from about 3 months ago, iteration nr. 2.
Continuing with #cakeposting backlog from last few weeks, here's a cooled cream tart - very spring and summer treat.
I didn't do any #cakeposting recently. Not that cakes didn't happen, I was just busy with other stuff. So here we go with yesterday's birthday tart for my younger one. @hob

Many people have switched from Twitter to Mastodon, but not everyone who followed me before on Twitter knows that I'm active here also. Will you help me increase my reach on Mastodon? Share this post, boost it or comment and let me know why you're following me. Maybe with some smart hashtags. Thank you! 👍 😊
