i first want to say that....their baking videos, while i enjoy them thoroughly, always confuse me. why are they so bad at baking? i can't tell if they're trying to be bad on purpose like as a meme or if they're just like some stereotypical dudes who don't know shit about baking.
but mainly, i can't believe that they're mixing things by hand in 2017 when they could buy the nicest stand mixer out there. maybe they wouldn't use it enough to warrant it, maybe they think the noise would distract from the videos, maybe they think that mixing it themselves makes it more interactive. those would all be valid reasons but for some reason it really bothers me every time as i've had a kitchenaid for at least 10 years and an electronic hand mixer before that.
also, the whisks are an overdone joke. but phil didn't eat any of the ingredients beforehand this time so maybe it's baby steps
I don't think they're bad at baking per say, most of their other creations turned out pretty good for two guys who
used to cook a lot but now order out pretty much all of the time. Meringues are pretty hard to cook for beginners, they even left them in too long so they kinda burnt. The other stuff they've made (bar the pumpkin cookies because that dough was so sticky i'll give them kudos for making them) has been fairly simple in baking terms.
I agree with you about the stand alone mixer (i am hella jealous of your kitchen aid, i totally want one but can't justify spending money on one at the moment), but i just don't think they'd ever use it. i said it already but they have become so lazy at cooking, they order out all the time, i mean, who even orders in pancakes on pancake day, that is the worst thing deppy have ever done if you ask me

But wouldn't they want to do some more touristing i AUS. I mean they travelled all that way, why not take to opportunity to see a bit more of it. Unless they need to get back for some moving stuff.
I think they might have moved before they left. They seemed fairly packed up by early April and professionell movers could empty that flat in a couple of hours, they really don't have that much stuff or furniture. Btw, do they really want to bring of half that furniture to a new place? Why would they pay someone to move that crappy sofa?
But I really have no idea, the timeline is really confusing.
I think they might actually, they said they wanted to go back after tatinof so they could spend another week out there. Don't worry though, someone is bound to spot them out and about if they do stay in australia, because all i've seen on twitter is people literally searching for them and tweeting others about it
