Happy Vernal Equinox Day.
The equinox was actually at 04:30 UTC, with sunrise for the pagans at Stonehenge at 06:06 UTC. But I wasn't awake for either.
And next Sunday is the first Sunday after the first full moon (Wed 23rd, 12:01 UTC) after the Vernal Equinox. So thanks to the calculations for the date of the Jewish feast of Passover, that's Easter.
Trying to unpack the symbolism surrounding all this is beyond me. The blood of sacrificed spring lambs, eh. M'kay, err, say what?
The only problem is finding quality, single origin, high solids, dark chocolate. Deeply disappointed that Waitrose have stopped carrying the plain Madecasse which was a fav. And I really hate the tendency to try and differentiate everything by adding ingredients. I don't want sea-salted caramel with buffalo milk, nibs, chili, ginger, orange and coffee bits. I just want an honest 75% plain from Madagascar.
And get off my lawn!
