An apple pie for @Siiw's birthday is in the oven.
(Well, I took the picture quite some time ago, so it's probably finished soon already...)

Got some #sodabread dough proofing/resting now.
Grateful that #BeardGrabber no longer seems afraid of the noisy handmixer. :D
I've made this dough a bit spicier than usual by adding #speculaas spices and extra #cinnamon, and I'll likely add some cinnamon/sugar-coated apples before baking them.
