The snow is finally melting in Burrwood Forest, as the spring rains are starting. Though it's still cold at night.

Here is a recipe for hot acorn cider, that I just invented:
- Grind up 10 acorns
- Heat a pan of melted snow, until it boils
- Grind up some minty hockenberry leaves (only found in Burrwood Forest)
- Mix the acorns, leaves and 3 drops of honey into the water, and stir 48 times
- That's it! Makes 6 burr servings (about a tablespoon, for humans.)

Draffle has been hibernating all winter, so it's been kind of lonely around here.

That's all for now,
