My brother visited us today for a slightly late low-key birthday celebration. We ate semlor from Spånga konditori, which were delicious but which I forgot to photograph, and made poppy seed buns, which I remembered to take a photo of.

For some reason the bun dough refused to rise. I waited for hours, moved them to a warmer spot, but nothing. The dough is starting to look rather dry, despite being covered all the time. I was close to just throwing them out but might as well leave them overnight to see if the dough wakes up. Nothing to lose, I guess.
