David Atherton won the 2019 edition of Great British Bake-Off winner. His day job, while not concocting sweet deserts, is as a nurse health advisor for the charity Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO). That effort took him to war zones in the Ivory Coast, Ethiopia and Nigeria.
He explained:
“Having been evacuated from two wars and had malaria nine times, definitely helped me handle the pressure on Bake Off. I was able to keep things in perspective…”
Atherton grew up in an evangelical Christian family rural Yorkshire, England. In an interview with Attitude Magazine, Atherton said that when he realized he was gay it resulting in a lot of shame
“All my friends were Christians and there was never a day that went by where I didn’t hear a very hurtful thing said referring to LGBTQ people.”
Working in Africa during his 20s also delayed his coming out. He was told that being gay could lead to time in jail if he wasn’t careful.
Atherton finally came out at the age of 29.
“I realised that I hadn’t been brave… It got to a tipping point where I thought ‘No, I can’t live a lie any more.’
Today, David lives with his partner Nik Sariyski who is from Bulgaria (a homophobic country). Nik is the first partner that David has introduced his family. In 2020 they announced their engagement.
Atherton continues to work for VSO and has written several cook books.
what if i fought paul hollywood jake paul style
i don’t normally post “non fandom” posts but i really need to talk abt the gbbo for a hot sec and all i want to say is this:
i really really really really do not like paul hollywood. not one bit. i find him to be an insufferable lad, if you will.
on another note i also wanted to say i absolutely adore noel fielding
also pls don’t post spoilers for this season i haven’t watched it yet
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it until I’m blue in the face. Paul Hollywood has never and will never make half the crap these bakers are forced to do
Would not want to bake for Paul #gbbs
Are you a witch who has just experienced something infuriating, or perhaps being aggro as fuck is just your state of being?
MAKE FUCKING BREAD.
IT’S CHEAP, EASY, AND ENDS IN YOU HAVING FOOD IN YOUR FACE, WHICH WILL CURE YOU OF YOUR AGGRO IF IT IS CAUSED BY BEING HANGRY. IT’S BASICALLY THE BEST WAY TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF SOMETHING LEGALLY.
HOLY COW I LOVE KNEADING.
STICK HERBS IN YOUR BREAD FOR CALMING.
DRAW A SIGIL ON IT WHILE IT PROVES TO TRANSFER YOUR ANGER AWAY FROM YOU.
HOLY SHIT I LOVE MAKING BREAD.
Can we get some basic bread recipes for the witch who has never made bread before?
YOU FUCKING BET WE CAN.
I TOTALLY SUCK AT BAKING, BUT EVEN MY CONFUSED ASS WAS ABLE TO EXECUTE THIS EASY BREAD RECIPE LIKE A BOOOSSSSSS.
https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2060/easy-white-bread?fcid=199899
ONLY 5 INGREDIANTS. MAXIMUM POTENTIAL FOR ANGER-KNEADING.
But personally I think 2tsp of salt is a bit heavy for this size loaf. To me it tastes much lighter with just one, so, ya know, different strokes…
WATCH THIS BRITISH GUY IF YOU’RE A VISUAL LEARNER.
NOW YOU HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO MAKE THE ANGER-LOAF OF YOUR DREAMS.
AND ONCE YOU’VE DOMINATED THE BASIC LOAF, YOU CAN GET FANCY AND ADD HERBS AND STUFF AND TURN YOUR ANGER-LOAF INTO A FANCY ANGER-LOAF.
me: is that gonna be Paul Hollywood telling me how to bake a bread
me: *clicks youtube link*
me: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
There’s a whole playlist of videos with Paul Hollywood baking bread on his YouTube channel, if you’re in need of that sort of thing.
Also, judging from this video, the color correctors on Bakeoff must be doing something to intensify his eyes. They seem to be in low-power mode here.
The Great British Bake Off: Technical Round
Prue: so Paul what can go wrong with this?
Paul: if they stir it counterclockwise the whole thing is ruined
*cuts immediately to a baker stirring counterclockwise*
