who only by moving can balance

Lightly adapted from smitten kitchen. The context: we got an accidental delivery, at the end of last week, that included seven litres of milk, and about two kilos of blood oranges on top of the kilo we already had in the fridge from the previous, intentional delivery. There was no useful way to refuse or return it -- our address had been entered in error by someone t'other end of the country, and I was mostly asleep & A was in a meeting when it arrived, so I answered the doorbell and then just.. noped -- so (as I alluded to yesterday) this leaves us with a whole pile of food that needs used.

Happily, smitten kitchen provides & ricotta is very easy to make (requires: milk + lemon juice + heat), so yesterday I turned some milk into ricotta and then Made A Cake. (It is gluten-free by default: it uses almond flour & cornmeal.)
