March 2: Week 4 wrapup

Two excellent sessions this week. The first was this rather fine event:

There were some more exotic options on the menu, but on the day I was all about the chocolate and this thing delivered. The calories probably meet the recommended daily intake for a polar bear, but given my gym/life balance right now, I say: bring it on.

Second cake is Lemon Meringue Pie:

This is one worth checking out. Notice the second layer in there? That supports an extra layer of lemoncurd. Too often Lemon Meringue Pies are just three thick strata, so dessert is like topsoil excavation … removal of the compressible, exposed top layer to reveal the structurally sound layer beneath, and underneath perhaps a solid crusty base. No more! There is a solution.

Also went to the gym a few times, but it was rest week so we don’t care.
