This year I gave the apricots a serious overnight soaking in mead. This and the amount of olive oil in the formula made the loaves feel very heavy. But, despite my fears, the cut slices were really (too) easy to eat.
Could have served them with custard …

Happy Burns night! Where is the loaf to mark this important date? Which also happens to be my 65th. xx
Stiglette! Late Happy Birthday! I’m sure that between you and Rabbie Burns the occasion was well celebrated. Much love from both of us xxx
