This will probably be my last TWD for a while. We don't move until the end of the month but I'm starting to panic that time is running out! Thankfully Malaysia is very close to Singapore so our belongings going by sea will reach us two weeks after we leave. When we moved here from England it took almost two months for our shipment to arrive.
Some friends held a barbeque for us on saturday and i thought it was a great excuse to make the plum tart and have it for dessert. I made a batch of the brownies from last weeks challenge too.
The tart came out really well (well better than i expected) although a little darker than i would have liked. I should have covered it with the foil tent much earlier. The brownies went down really well, lot's of people asking for the recipe, and they were finished before the meat was even served! There was one slice of the tart left which i quickly grabbed so i could taste it. Delicious! I'd love to make this again using different fruit.
Halfway through the barbeque the heavens opened and it poured with rain. Everyone was huddled under what little covering we had except for a dear friend Dudley who carried on cooking the meat. What a trooper! Eventhough we were all soaked (especially Dudley), everyone had a great time. Good food, great company and a rainstorm to remember our last barbeque in Singapore :)
This weeks challenge was chosen by Denise from Chez Us. Thanks for the great pick Denise!

Good luck with your move. Your tart looks wonderful.
Even with the rain it sounds like a great time! The tart looks great!
How nice that you got to make two Tuesdays with Dorie recipes for one party. It sounds like both desserts were a hit!
Good luck with the move - sounds exciting yet terrifying at the same time!
Your tart looks delicious and I bet that was a great BBQ! I hope your move goes well- it's always stressful but exciting too!
Wow, it must be so rough to move internationally! Hope it goes smoothly and we see you back with TWD soon after!
Your Brioche Tart looks tasty, obviously since everyone gobbled it up! Glad everyone enjoyed it and your brownies too!
moving a few miles around town is stressful, i can't imagine having to move to another country. Hope everything goes smoothly for you. At least you got to relax and enjoy some of these nice treats.
I'll miss you while you are getting things together for the move. Good luck with everything! Nice job on the tart.
