Adventures in feast preparation

[mrsbrown]

I'm blaming last night's depression on the cold I seem to have picked up.  I'm up early due to an inability to breath. Oh, and also stress.

Last night, despite my body/brain screaming at me to just sit on the couch, I attempted to make a wine syrup for Hippocras.  On reflecting, Pleyn Delit clearly told me not to cook the spices in the wine, but I did it anyway.

They're right.  When you cook the spices "a peculiar viscosity results".  This morning I think I can face throwing out the wine sugar and spice mess.

Sorry to hear about the hippocras fail. Tired and stressed will do that. 8-< The running sheet looks good to me and I have printed 2 copies. (FOC worth of rice is scary!)

See you tonight
