The Bakewell Tart-Eating Contest by fishers

The Bakewell Tart-Eating Contest

Mr and Mrs Timber turned up to the tri-annual Bakewell Tart Eating Contest today, held in my kitchen at the start of each term when my flatmate comes back from holiday with a pack of Bakewell Tarts in her suitcase. As you can see, Mr Timber won hands-down while Mrs Timber preferred to take more lady-like bites of hers.

(Many thanks to flatmate Hannah for the kind donation of her Bakewells. And many thanks to you, patient viewers, for humouring me while I'm in the middle of oral exam-related insanity) - Lucy

There is art in many forms and variety . This is art for me to. Very funny and very creative.

Ha! Very funny, Lucy. Glad to see you can take a little bit of time away from studying for fun & creativity!

A little humor, especially at time of studying is refreshing. Mr. Timber reminds me of my husband, who during the last war as a child with five siblings tried to eat real fast to be first in line for seconds (if there were any) and who can't drop that habit..he is always the first one finished with an empty plate in front of him while we're still enjoying our meal.

@purplehaze12 Thanks! It's good to have distinctive cutlery when you're a student, that way you know exactly who's stealing it because it's obvious when you see them! - Lucy
