      I’m interested in this beef Wellington pie. So not a traditional beef Wellington but a pie version. Was it a large pie or individual pies? And if it was a large pie how fucking big was this thing that feed 5 people plus leftovers for the kids plus samples for the cops? Was there more than one pie? So many questions.

        Maybe it was like a pot pie in a casserole dish and there were two.

        It all seems weird though. I initially thought it was foraging gone wrong and she’d be better off admitting if it was

        I thought about this but more so a silly question of how many mushrooms does it take to make this big meal. Probably enough to reasonably say all the purchased shrooms have been used in cooking and nothing left to test. Also I just looked up a beef Wellington and I didn’t know it just looks like a giant sausage roll.

          It’s a very labour intensive giant sausage roll. You don’t use a lot of mushrooms but in a pie who knows. Now she has said that her kids don’t eat mushrooms so she scraped them off which tells me it was perhaps a traditional beef Wellington and not a pie because you would “dig them out” if that was the case.
