Barking breakdown: Flipflops: Buggers, look ok standing there, but it’s their unsuitability for anything but that, flap flap flap… Low hanging fruit: Well now, low hanging fruit being taken is opportunistic, good if you’re doing the one taking Frangipane: It’s delicious, Tarte Bourdaloue for example

A frangipane pear tart, also known as Tarte Bourdaloue, is a classic French dessert made with a sweet pastry crust filled with almond cream (frangipane) and topped with poached or sliced pears. This tart is known for its rich, nutty flavor and is often served during the holiday season or special occasions.
