\u00a0Skye<\/p>\n
I would normally be writing to remind you of the Ceilidh dances.\u00a0 The one scheduled for next Friday has been cancelled and the one at the end of April is on hold for now but check the ceilidh website – www.vancouverceilidh.org<\/a> – for updates.<\/p>\n I thought, instead of that I should send a cheery note as most of us are housebound.\u00a0 So here is a newsletter with nothing but pictures, jokes and videos.\u00a0 I hope it finds you all well and that this will lift your spirits.<\/p>\n Dumbarton Bridge<\/p>\n Honey and Cinnamon<\/u><\/p>\n Honey is the only food on the planet that will not spoil or rot.\u00a0\u00a0It will do\u00a0what some call turning to sugar.\u00a0\u00a0In reality honey is always honey.\u00a0\u00a0However\u00a0when left in a cool dark place for a long time it will do what I rather\u00a0call “crystallizing”.\u00a0\u00a0When this happens I loosen the lid, boil some water,\u00a0and sit the honey container in the hot water, turn off the heat and let it\u00a0liquefy.\u00a0\u00a0It is then as good as it ever was. Never boil honey or put it in a\u00a0microwave.\u00a0\u00a0To do so will kill the enzymes in the honey.<\/p>\n Ladhope golf course near Galashiels<\/p>\n Maybe the news is old, maybe they are not keeping a social distance but the theme hits the right note.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.vancouverceilidh.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Winter-Dumbarton-Bridge.jpg\")
