Never in all of human endeavour do the pursuits of science and art come together quite as they do when baking. Or something.
water and milk and butter and flour and salt and sugar and yeast. Lot's of hard kneading work and a few hours too increase in size lots and we have....

A little while in the oven and we get...

Mmm.. bouncy and soft. Soon to fill a warm one with delicious things. Like brie. And eat it.
Yum.
I hope I've made your afternoon more interesting.

Quite delicious too. Maybe slightly heavy in the crumb, but still very edible.

Baking does indeed rules. I love making chelsea buns but they go off after about a day so I have to eat them all very, very quickly. Ideally before my girlfriend gets home.

I'm making a rhubarb crumble tonight, lovely!!!
Here's an interesting baking fact of the day.
The pudding "crumble" was invented/discovered/popularised during the second war world. Due to rationing the lady folk didn't have enough ingredients to make pies so as a treat they decided to stew the fruit and add a "crumble" as a pasty substitute.
Thank God for Hitler invading Poland as with that one act we wouldn't have such lovely puddings as Apple/Rhubarb crumble!!!

I'm too lazy to do cookering/bakering, I'm a microwaving man.

Shouldn't that be microwavering? I made Bakered Alaska last week. The Russians think I'm some sort of wizard now.  Maybe there should be a kiosk at the CG selling "flammableBuns"? You could even franchise it ... Macdonalds had to start somewhere.
