Just high school. What's confusing to you? (Other than then being TV's version of "high school," which is WAY OLDER than actual high schoolers.) (Props to the episode of Leverage that I just watched for using kids who actually looked like they were in high school.)

I have been baking casseroles, in actual bakeware in my oven! I dislike the cleaning of bakeware that has been in the oven. The hauling out of hot, heavy dishes at an awkward angle is annoying as well. Time to expand into microwave "baking".

Greasing and flouring the bakeware first can make casserole cleanup a lot easier.

The way they look plus some of the way they talk ..They are supposed to be sophomores right so 15 and of course don't look it.

The only thing I've watched in awhile that is set in high school is Girl Meets World and those are teenagers playing teens

Gommel/gomeral is a great word.

What the heck is blind baking?

I like to think it means you blindfold yourself before mixing ingredients.

The technical challenge Paul Hollywood really wants to have.

Blind baking is just pre-baking a pie crust. You weigh it down with something so the crust will keep its shape and not form a big bubble in the middle of what's eventually going to be your bottom crust.

Riverdale's teens look even older to me than Dawson's Creek's teens did back in the day! And I have to think the writers are deliberately teasing us with the geography, because in the pilot they have the cheerleaders talking about the competition over in Rockland County, which would seem to put Riverdale in either Riverdale or Riverdale. But in the next ep Veronica's getting cupcakes flown in from New York, which would put it...elsewhere.

This morning needed more jackhammer.

Riverdale's teens look even older to me than Dawson's Creek's teens did back in the day!

True, but then I think of 90210, with Luke Perry (who is craggy as HELL in Riverdale!) and whatshername who played Andrea, who was SUPER old to be playing a teenager.
