So, okay. Since you haven't given us the recipe we asked for and also
haven't shown us how you modified it, we can't tell what's going on. At
this point, if as you say you're having a day of little success and
stupid mistakes, I have to judge that you are definitely doing something
wrong.

Okay, again. The plum tart "doesn't look great in its Pyrex pie pan..."
<sigh> What does that mean?

Sounds to me like you've got oven trouble. Give us more information, so
we may be able to help you out.
