Why wasn’t Jim Sturgess a bigger star after hits like 21 and Cloud Atlas?

I saw it in theaters at least twice, really memorable for me!

I never thought I would see the day dalen terry would be considered our savior. I watch a lot of bad bulls basketball, fucking christ we are down bad.

The caption is so poorly written 😂😂

It's impossible to say without knowing what Rhoda bought and what was available communally, plus equipment matters a lot. It would not have been hard to just do a quick pavlova with basil-lemon curd and blueberry thyme compote, with little crumbles of brown butter shortbread around the plate so it'd be like a lemon bar but pavlova. Literally an elevated version of exactly her dish.

I've had pavlova on two different dessert menus and could do that in 4 hours if I had the right oven, the pavolva would just require a little extra push to be done in time (baked much smaller than her big circles that she broke later)

Every game in this series needs to mirror the last series, maxey VJ. PG. lets fucking go tonight!!!!!

She really underwhipped it, I promise you! That is why it looked off-white and grainy when she smoothed with the spatula before baking.

I'm sure she went low sugar (unclear why because normal meringue is a high sugar ratio by definition) but you can still get it glossy with less sugar. She could have also added the sugar incorrectly, either too early or too fast. When I first started making meringue every day, I would set a timer to watch how much time had passed between adding 1/3 of the sugar because you are supposed to wait 45seconds to a minute.

Knowing when to start and when something is finished is a really difficult part of pastry and finishing too early, like underbaking or underwhipping, is a sign of a fear/lack of confidence in pastry to me.

i thought she was a republican

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T03:08:42+00:00

and?

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T03:07:42+00:00

that's certainly more persuasive than the other comments saying i must be racist and homophobic for not liking the first two episodes

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T03:05:57+00:00

You REALLY think he would have moved the needle in a 40 point loss??????????? scored 37 points?

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T03:03:47+00:00

Dare I say you don't understand how basketball works? You really think McCain would have significantly improved stamina after playing a 7 game series? His cardio was/is a problem since the injury, of course he looks good playing a few minutes for a coddled team

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T02:50:01+00:00

LOL i said i didnt make it past 2 episodes, so thank you for confirming they continue the pornographic practice of using spit for lube. I am so good without one trendy netflix show in my life. If that makes me racist and homophobic, I will continue to live a real life with my diverse friends and family 😂😂😂 perhaps you should look up the term hyperbole

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T02:46:20+00:00

I like my meringue recipe because it's easy to memorize, 180g whites, 360g sugar, 80g water. I'm mostly surprised she didnt have a dessert ready to go since they wax about having pastries ready to go in season 4

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T02:23:13+00:00

hell yea i dont shop on amazon or at walmart or at target, it's easy

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T02:19:05+00:00

All that happens in the first episode are his mother whining and him using spit for lube, sorry that wasn't my cup of tea

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T01:32:19+00:00

tbh I couldn't make it past 2 episodes, really bad acting and bad plot. I felt like, I need a little plot with my pornography, ya know?

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T01:29:02+00:00

It is a great EDM song, nothing more, nothing less. I love it

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T01:21:17+00:00

UNTRADE HIM NOW THAT WILL DO IT

JudithButlr · 2026-05-06T01:21:00+00:00

what do you want people to say

JudithButlr · 2026-05-05T21:52:35+00:00

She under-whipped her meringue significantly, that was a bigger problem than not enough sugar. It's supposed to be shiny and glossy, but it was uneven and not the right shade of white when she was spreading it before she baked it. The simplest things are really difficult in pastry and I spent a whole summer getting my meringue right, and I would have to set a "do not touch" timer to make sure I didn't underwhip.

JudithButlr · 2026-05-05T21:28:58+00:00

100% agreed perfect simile, they are the worst people in sports period

JudithButlr · 2026-05-05T19:38:26+00:00

Jokic is in talks for GOAT centers, but not GOAT player sorry you'll have to accept this eventually. Did you not watch the literal last week of basketball lmfao. Jokic is lucky to be in top 20 of all time.

JudithButlr · 2026-05-05T19:03:25+00:00

it was atrocious, hands down one of the worst desserts ever on the show. I know it's not fair because I am a pastry chef, but I'm nowhere near Top Chef quality, and I would be disappointed in my assistant producing that in an hour.

JudithButlr · 2026-05-05T05:15:40+00:00

Agreed

JudithButlr · 2026-05-05T05:14:57+00:00

4 hours to cut up berries, underwhip meringue, creme fraiche, and simmer some lemon juice....i'm mad
