I can be a bigot, and I can be stupid.
For example: I had saved a bookmark to a site with an eclair recipe.  I'd never made it.  I was thinking that I'd like to bake something tomorrow, and so, going through bookmarks, I found it.  Hmmm.... prepackaged vanilla pudding?  store-bought graham crackers? Nope, not for me.  If I can't make it from scratch, it's not real baking. So I tossed it.
Then I found this.  Ah, I said, that's more like it.  Choux pastry, vanilla custard filling, chocolate ganache on top.  Course....that is a fair amount of work.  Wish there was a faster way. Maybe next time.
Yeah, I know.  Nothin' dumber than a stupid baking bigot.
