paul hollywood on bakeoff: now, i can see you’ve had a little trouble with your genoise sponge, haven’t you? the egg whites haven’t been whipped for quite long enough, and it’s lost some of that delicate, airy consistency, which means that your 10,000 spun sugar decorations haven’t got the solid foundation that they really need to support the handcrafted marzipan statue of the virgin mary that you’ve painted with edible gold leaf

Day 20: Thoth

Egyptian scribes were selective with what they recorded. There are no papyri recording Egypt’s defeats and losses. Propaganda obscured many official records of Egypts dark hours and archeologists often turn to the graffiti and letters of the people of Egypt for the truth about famines, wars and corruption.

Thoth’s origin is as the god of the moon, but as much of the Egyptian calendar is measured by the phases of the moon, so Thoth evolved into the god of measurement, mathematics, sciences and of course, writing.
