tielan: (don't mess with)

I made baklava on Tuesday night and I fell down the stairs on the way home on Wednesday afternoon. And I've written about 4000 words this week, which is better than 0, but still not as much as I want.

The baklava is amazing - pomegranate baklava - and although a little tricksy with the filo (fillo/phyllo) pastry, the filling and honey-sugar syrup is easy.

(Except for the part where it overboils and then you have this crazy sugary gloop to clean up...)

Anyway: BAKLAVA (home-made)

pomegranate baklava )

It's kind of amazingly delicious.

And having made it once, I'm going to make it again this week, while we still have pomegranates in the shops.
