Ugh! Fussy! And they look like they would throw ghastly shadows!

Ugh!
Looks like a candidate for Unhappy Hipsters (http://unhappyhipsters.com/)

The cake looks fab. The picture of the hair flopping around loose while icing it -- not so much.

Since going Paleo, I don't eat grains anymore, but when I did, I used the rice cooker method. Perfect every time.

Fabulous! Fabulous! Congratulations on an incredible job.

I think Flylady's system is simpler.

Also, I hate to be a grammar nazi, but
" If your kitchen was really clean" should be: "if your kitchen *were* really clean." The subjunctive is the correct usuage here.

Looks good. Seems to me, though, that you could save a step and deepen the flavor by roasting the leeks with the broccoli.

@Trish: I agree completely. This method is way too fussy for me, not to mention the video itself was irritating (that flat monotone!).

RE: Less vs Few debate: from Oxford Dictionaries.com

"Use fewer if you’re referring to people or things in the plural (e.g. houses, newspapers, dogs, students, children). ...

Less is also used with numbers when they are on their own and with expressions of measurement or time, e.g.:

Their marriage lasted less than two years.
Heath Square is less than four miles away from Dublin city centre."

Looks like less is the correct usuage in this case.

I agree with @Honeybee.

This is an example of how irrelevant and silly Apartment Therapy is becoming lately.
