Y’all. I’m a Netflix/Amazon Prime binger. It’s problem, but I know it’s a problem, so it’s okay, right?

At the moment, I am HEAVILY into the binging of The Great British Baking Show.

Heavily.

Maybe it’s due to my desire to be a great baker and my lack of time, effort, and ability to do so. Some innate drive to join with them even though I am sooooo unqualified. There’s nothing I love more than shaking my head along with Paul Hollywood, and going, “And you call THAT a choux pastry???”

I don’t know how to make any pastry, let alone choux, but I know what it looks like now!

And sometimes I think it would be amazing to write a story set in a baking competition. Then I remember that there are at least four Hallmark movies already based around such a theme, and I wonder if that’s a sign…

But really, should I?

Not that I have the time to do a new project right now. I’m on a “strictly current projects only” restriction from my publisher. And some of my writing partners. And I think my mom.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the doctor at work had that restriction for me, too.

Writer probs.

ANYWHO. I love this show. A lot. I’ve always loved it a lot, but right now I’m back to loving it a lot.

Maybe it’s the carbs. As Prue (on the show) says, “It’s worth the calories.”

Dang straight, lady. Sure is.

(If you think I should write a story around a baking competition, shout it out!)
