Are this year's Bad Sex Award finalists (link obviously nsfw) awfully disappointing? Like, one of them really just made me hungry for pudding. Actual pudding, I hasten to add (although it's British so probably a Bakewell pudding isn't what I'm picturing when I see the word "pudding," and also, the word "pudding" has just grown completely

(It's actually called Bakewell Tart. It has a pastry base, a layer of jam, an almond flavoured, cookie textured filling, and a thin layer of icing on top).

Yeah, nothing like pudding in the American sense then. But it sounds awfully delicious!

The tart and the pudding are different! In what way precisely is a matter for debate, but in general the pudding: doesn't have icing; uses puff pastry rather than shortcrust; involves an eggy custardy bit.

I've never come across anything cookie-textured in either (either hard or chewy), though there's sponge in the tart. And possibly in the pudding too.

I sort of got stuck on she led me to her elfin grot. Because that's such a sexy phrase. Yowza.
