    It looks perfectly tartalicious. Almond topping...mmm..yuuum. You know, it was funny, as I was having my white ganache battle I lamented that I didn't have your phone number, I was thinking, I just bet Cathie would know what to do, although I am sure you wouldn't have appreciated the call at midnight ;) x
