Treacle soda bread and soup

The fog hung like a pall over the land this morning.  It was definitely a day to do some indoor jobs so I made some butternut squash soup and treacle soda bread.  Both were delicious.   The addition of a little treacle and honey just sweetened it a touch and darkened the mix. I went into work and did a house call.  The gentleman was very old and deaf having been blown up by a land mine in the war.  The clock needed a thorough overhaul but I got it working again with a quick fix as he could not afford the proper job.  I didn't have the heart to charge him the usual call out as he was so frail.  Not the best way of doing business I know!
