I know this sinking feeling. Dating myself all the way back to the Iron Age. (Still remember some of these phone numbers, too.)

Bottle of Tollundmanden strong bitter.
Well, surely the only thing to drink after a visit to Silkeborg Museum is a bottle of Tollundmanden bitter bought in the museum shop. Quite why it’s an English bitter I don’t know, but it’s not bad. This holiday has been a big boost to the bog body memorabilia archive!

Illustrative watercolour, ink and coloured pencil painting. A green, beaked, hippie-looking creature picks a rudbeckia flower from a lush meadow.

You've heard of bog bodies, but have you heard of bog butter?
Found in Ireland by a famer, this 2,000 year old that had been buried in the bog for preservation weighs about 22 pounds!
The best part? It's still edible!

Shows a close-up of a panel in Aquila Magazine. Text contains a pun about toes made out of potatoes which your text reader might not cope with. Sorry. Text reads: What happened there then? During pickling, water moves out of the (pota)toes by osmosis and the pickling liquid diffuses in to replace it, preserving the spuds. Vinegar makes the pickling liquid acidic, and the teabag releases tannins - conditions a bit like a peat bog! There is a picture of five toes, sculpted from potato (complete with potato skin nails), which are slightly wrinkly and brown stained. The caption below the picture says 1 week later - brown and wrinkly - and stinky! The edge of the next panel is included as a teaser, it says: Taking it further: Horrify your family.
December's Aquila Magazine! Theme = #Vikings inc my article about #BogBodies #Peat, shows you how to make Queen Gunnhildr's Pickled (Pota)Toes. Also articles from @taskmaster.tv and thisyear's @ri-science.bsky.social Xmas Lecturer Dr Chris van Tulleken.

falling down an odd rabbit hole but did u know they've found perfectly preserved (ritualistically murdered) bodies in bogs??? (a swamp just cold weather) up to like 8000 B.C.E & can tell what their last meals were? 🤯 #BogBodies
Sunlight illuminates Sankt Annæ Plads after a storm in Copenhagen, Denmark. July 2023. Sankt Annæ Plads has two lines of trees and between them is a strolling space and park with benches and play areas for children and it also has some copper statues along the stroll, turned green over time. One of the loveliest streets I've ever encountered. Photo credit: Nancy Forde. All rights reserved. nancyforde.com

My #photo of sunlight after a storm illuminating Sankt Annæ Plads in #Copenhagen when I was in #Denmark to meet and research #BogBodies (July 2023) toward the book I'm now writing.
Florida's Windover Bog Bodies are roughly 8000 years-old, consisting of 168 ancient individuals that were found buried at the bottom of the Windover pond. Thanks to the peat down there, the bodies were preserved so well that scientists even found intact brain tissue in several skulls.
Oh! To be this cozy! #bogbodies
