DIY candles

Oddly, the porridge I made with blueberries this morning was the same colour as the candles.

Tangential reply

I cook with a lot of dripping. To save blocking the sink up I usually wipe the pan out, when still hot with kitchen roll and use it to light the woodburner.

I don't eat grains now and have a large bag of porridge oats from when I  did.

My cunning plan now is to sprinkle my porridge oats into the remaining dripping in pan. Once it's set I will form it into fat balls for the birds which they should enjoy this time of year!
