Deaventer Koeke!
I would like to share my joy with you at finding today in my local Sainsbury's the following item: J.B.Bussinks Echte Gemberkoek (although redubbed as "J.B.Bussink's Real Dutch Stem Ginger Loaf"); truly, such discoveries, combined with my first home-ground coffee brought light to my otherwise dreary I-really-should-be-writing-that-bloody-essay-life.

Furthermore, due to some expectant and reproachful comments elsewhere, I shall deliver my Anthropological analysis of Guy Fawkes day later tonight that I promissed earlier (and that Anna so dearly missed) (another excuse not to write the essay that I should be wiritng, I fear)
