The fruits of my labor

I was compelled. I needed to bake today. I've been meaning to bake for a long time, but I've only managed to get about 3 or 4 hours of sleep per night the last week or so. Whenever I have enough time to bake I choose to collapse into bed instead. This morning began by kneading out two discs of pate brisee (pie crusts). Then came the creme brulee french toast. Then came the strawberry rhubarb filling. Tonight will be the oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. Work never tasted so good.

Here are the fruits of my labor:



And, yes, it's as good as it looks.
