Danish butter is on offer in at least one UK supermarket, currently 10% less than economy butter. Surprise surprise. No better way to eat (gluten free, lowish carb) ginger cake:

Look at that bite. That's my catastrophic tooth organisation! That really is how my teeth developed as a youngster. Not much to be done about that nowadays...
On the baby front the carnivory continues:

And I've largely replaced creamy cocoa with chocolate butter:

One 100gm chocolate bar (85% or 90%), One 250gm block of economy butter, 45ml double cream, 15 or 30ml honey and some vanilla. Melt, pour in to an ice cube tray, freeze, pop out of tray while frozen, keep in fridge until consumed, not very long...
It partly settles out unless you are very careful with temperatures but tastes none the worse for that.
Reading wise it's still all mitochondria and there are a million things to check but it remains interesting in the extreme.
What with the children's birthdays, Solstice, Christmas etc there is not a lot of free time but I'll get some posts up sometime!
Happy mid Winter Festival time to all

Brings back memories of last year's Solstice, driving across the Acle marshes in to a brilliant dawn with a lunar eclipse in the rearview mirror. Lovely to live just above the adjoining marshes nowadays.
