The Birds

Custard...

Nothing fancy, just a custard cake.

Nothing much...

The custard tasted like a lump of white gook.

Maybe it was the tart itself...

Tarts are tarts and custard is custard.

Sometimes they’re good, sometimes not...

Anyhow, Birds did not make good TARTES À LA CRÉME ANGLAISE.

Honestly, it was just white mud.

Not even yellow!
