First attempt at hot water pastry, a chicken and bacon pie. There was a little hole in the side which jelly leaked out of so it didn't quite get to the top. Very tasty anyway!

Is my daughter too young for NP-hard problems?

Bagels! (Well, they all have the right topology. Taste yet to be determined)

Sausage rolls-to-be

OK, I like this one

Sketching ideas for Christmas card designs. Imagine if I was any good at drawing!

Finished! #3dprint

PS check out my Extremely Safe filament spool

Gold!
I rounded off the corners so it's not as sharp. It pulled away from the printing bed a bit, which is going to make it hard to stick the two halves together. I've put some glue down for the second half.

Take 2: a bit better. It needs to be thicker, though.

Today I am trying to #3dprint a star for my Christmas tree. First go not very successful. (Yes I'm colourblind but I know it's green - the gold PLA arrives tomorrow)

Stars or boats?

Tonight I made three recipes from Nikki Segnit's "Lateral Cooking". Really straightforward recipes, and she's such a brilliant writer. There's a whole bit about angel cakes that includes the phrase "like a dowdy egg's extravagant dream".

First, I made an angel cake. That involved the whites of five eggs, so with the left-over yolks I made biscuits and mayonnaise. It was the first time I've made mayonnaise, so I'm really happy it turned out OK. My shoulder knacks though!

I've made a new #3dprinted puzzle: the Hexiamond lantern

Just using my colourblind app to help me appreciate the beauty of autumn leaves 👍 😎 👍

I mean honestly

I've made a new thing. I've called it "The Homologist's Nightmare".
