Oh, and also stress.<br /><br />Last night, despite my body/brain screaming at me to just sit on the couch, I&nbsp;attempted to make a wine syrup for Hippocras.&nbsp; On reflecting, Pleyn Delit clearly told me not to cook the spices in the wine, but I did it anyway.<br /><br />They're right.&nbsp; When you cook the spices &quot;a peculiar viscosity results&quot;.&nbsp; This morning I think I&nbsp;can face throwing out the wine sugar and spice mess.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=mrsbrown&ditemid=272935" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
