A little more light

Today is 5th January - a day to celebrate as the evenings start to feel lighter - actually be lighter.

So I am going to make a sun cake - a dark fruit filled cake, cooked slowly, filling the house with the scent of warming spices, dried fruit and apple.
 
Then later, we'll take the still warm cake for a bit of a walk, find a view, open the flask and look at the view and quietly relish the coming of spring.

    Yes, the daylight is increasing! It seems to me that I'm noticing that its arrival is earlier than in previous years.... No logical explanation for this!

    It feels good to know the daylight hours are getting longer. Much more useful for walking! The cake looks very morish. :)
