Been in baking mode for a few weeks. These ended up with Mrs 73 for a friend. Always bring back memories making them. Watching and learning from my mum then making them together. Plus always love using my Grandmothers bowl and tins. New tins just don’t have same feel or quality.
Must be going well 5 jars of mincemeat down and counting most ended up in the pies

Having to avoid gluten they do make a pretty cheap dessert, even at the price of gf ones, compared to other gf puddings so a fair number scoffed so far with only two dozen left, might need some more

A very short night shift though. 1 pie for each hour ‘worked’

I'm off to the Christmas Markets tomorrow. I shall be eating and drinking though.

Why do they have Christmas markets at Christmas time?
Shurely they would do more trade in the summer time when the weather is likely to be warmer and it is a pleasure to be out, longer daylight too.

We've run out of Mince Pies, again !

My tired mistake, it was 12 (hours, not pies.... )

We may have to make a last minute emergency dash to the shops for more. I wonder when they will reduce the prices?

 

[Globalti]

Yes good point. When will retailers start discounting the Christmas rubbish?

I had two last night with brandy butter. I think brandy cream is nicer.

We have a friend called Pam who is an excellent baker and a very generous soul. She made about 20 for us (well, me,actually)

We have another friend called Pam so this Pam is called "Cakey Pam"
