Finally took the time to merge so many Lightroom catalogs into one. 29000 photos over 12 years. Keywords to be cleaned up tomorrow….

Pretty spicy depending on how much you cook the ginger.

Hm, I managed to do it with 1 saucepan and 1 mug, but I suppose you could drink straight out of the saucepan.

Oh it's pretty quick really.

  • Dry-fry roughly grated ginger
  • Toast clove, cinnamon, and star anise
  • Add brown sugar, let it caramelise
  • Deglaze with water
  • Simmer for 5 minutes
  • Add a drop of apple cider vinegar
  • Pour into a mug with a shot of gold rum

Very spicy, very cosy.

Possibly; I was also very careful not to have more than about a shot each of most wines yesterday. Love the taste of it all but hate the idea of losing the next day.

Crazy day yesterday: company Christmas lunch (with lots of good wine) from 1pm–6pm; then a completely unrelated wine dinner from 7pm–1am with some ridiculously good food by someone who should basically be running a private kitchen — last of the main courses at midnight — and some blind tasting with people far more knowledgeable in those wine regions than me.

Surprisingly didn't get drunk at all; slept 6 hours and also have no hangover.

I wonder when I'll actually go and deploy this Django site.

It looks like 2 weeks of travelling has made me really increased my appetite for playing music. Have been playing something both in the morning and the evening the last few days; normally I just put aside an hour in the morning for something, but my hands have been itching for it in the evening…
