962. Everybody Likes Pie

Earlier I was browsing the Ariadne's threads for a recipe for today's lunch. Out of the blue a link about pies on ELLE.fr catched my eyes.

I scrubbed it from the usual blah-blah, only to keep the yummy part:

Double pork tourtière with a Fleur-de-Lys for Quebecers friends

Jo Harrington, @jojoromancer

Probably more appetising once baked, still the work is fascinating

(and simplicity is often the hardest thing to reach...)

PS: Guess what? Not that anyone cares but I also happened to find the recipe I was originally looking for.

PPS: I'll spare you the question, it was chicken with curry & coconut milk w/ Basmati rice, which I ate while watching Season.04-Episode.01 of Star Trek Discovery.

TikTok is definitely not my thing: whenever you come up with finding something really cool you always end up frustrated it's too short a video because that's "the idea", one minute max - no more. Like in enough to tease you, baby?

Except that's not true. 

Any (free) registered user can upload a video of any length on TikTok. Unfortunately this young man sticks to sharing videos that are way too short. As a result, as much as the talent is obvious he doesn't seem to care enough as to giving it the space it deserves.

Anyway, his name is Cale Brown, age 21, seems to stick to the TikTok platform - although he shows other skills on his Instagram.

You may never come across this post, Cale, but if you do: we've all been teased enough, so please consider publishing videos that'd cover the whole song you're dancing to. Meanwhile, thanks a million for you have made my day!
