 52% — still no sign of a rabbit. (A reference to JKRowling and The Running Grave and yesterday’s message here.)

   Wafa and I have had a busy-feeling day. The one long-lasting result has been the cranberry sauce. Should I worry about whether it will keep that long? Nobody came to see us.

   Not much knitting, either, because our busy-ness kept us in the kitchen all morning. But I’ve done a bit more. I think I’m past the point of no return. I’ve reached the point, to put it another way, where the knitting itself begins to guide my steps. The instructions remain labyrinthine — “work row 1 of yoke increase row A” and that in turn consists largely of “row 1 of half brioche stitch (flat)”. I think they could have been simplified.

  Wordle: it didn’t seem very easy to me, but we all found it so. My starters gave me two greens. and three browns — a complete anagram

  There were four threes and two fours for the British team. The fours were Alexander and Ketki. In DC Roger swelled the ranks of the threes, and Theo posted a stunning two.

  1. Cranberry sauce freezes really well, either the whole lot, or split up into smaller containers. Jean, my Wordle threes are catching up to my fours, thanks to your starter words.

    Same - cranberry sauce is always good, and thaws easily.

    I make a big batch of cranberry sauce each year at Thanksgiving. It keeps well in a sealed container in the refrigerator . I have frequently served the same batch for thanksgiving and Christmas. There has never been a problem with it. I have more than once celebrated the end of the year with dinner roll, butter, and cranberry relish sandwiches.
