there beneath the blue suburban skies

dear enoch

i have let you down.

the night before last, my godbrother and i decided to make dinner for the whole family and i decided to make apple crumble. following the recipe which we used many times before remember? and i didn't see what could go wrong because dude, it's winter in a temperate country after all? and the butter should behave itself a lot better than in hot and humid singapore.

well, okay it did. and i even got these lovely, lovely granny smiths to use!

BUT IT FAILED. i think i left it in too long, and the temperature was too low. the apples kinda lost their juice to the pastry which didn't cook properly as a result. it looked very pretty before you poked your fork in. and i would post pictures of it but my fingers are too, too cold.

anyhow, i'm very sorry. i shall now kowtow to you ALL HAIL ENOCH, THE BETTER COOK THAN CHLOE.

yeah right. i'll never concede defeat. one day i shall make apple crumble without you (again) and it shall be perfect.
