What a beautiful evening, almost full moon, inky indigo sky and just a few steam-train clouds puffing in it's luminescent wake. And Beirut's "The Flying Club Cup" doing its crazy, circular, sad-happy, political, personal, gypsy, arms-outstretched, inspirational thing. This music is so hard to describe yet so tangible. I almost want to say revolutionary, but that seems like an albatross around the neck of an unrestrained man-child... Precipitous beauty.
Untold beauty held
vigilant city walls cold
idle wings outstretched
It's holiday season for most and I've been making lots of treats. This one is time consuming (but so worth it)rich and not really healthy! Fruity fridge loaf. 250g butter. 1 cup raw (vanilla) brown sugar. 2 L eggs lightly beaten. 2 Packets Marie biscuits crushed (not too finely). 1&1/2 cups cake fruit mix soaked overnight in 3 Tbsps bourbon whiskey. Melt butter and sugar on low/med heat in a med size pot until sugar is dissolved and golden. Remove from heat and quickly mix in eggs and then rest of ingredients. Mix well with a wooden spoon and then pour into a buttered and floured loaf tin. Refrigerate overnight. Serve in slices as is or with vanilla ice-cream. Enjoy!
