hello all.
i had to post this. us stewarts/days have, through the ages, been absolutely useless at anything meringue based. we totally suck. my mum is the greatest cook but she didn't manage to break the generational curse. it brings much lolz whenever we try to make it once a year and then fail.
anyway, today my flatmate decided to have a really early christmas dinner (hmm, don't ask) so i made a chocolate raspberry pavlova for everyone HOOOH BOY HERE IT IIIIIIISSS! my wrist hurts from whisking, but it was successful. i took some pictures for prosperity and to send to me mammy ; ) i've never had this much fun, uh, grating dark chocolate before.
p.s while i was searching for a thread to put this in (keyword: CAKE) i found
this fantastic thread of cosmo's back in the day which deserves looking at for the awesome photographs. thought the general cooking thread was the best place for this to live, but anyway : )
tasty.
while taking it my flatmate said i was looking at it like a newborn child haha.
