Mince Pies

[Basil.B]

Bought a box of Mince Pies at Sainsbury's earlier last week, only £1 for six.
Just finished the last one, had it at teatime.
Anybody else eating Mince Pies yet?

 

[ianrauk]

not yet, but wish I was.
(Just polished off a bowl of apple crumble and custard)

Morrisons are doing 12 for £2.

i will wait till the misses makes the real ones in December with homemade pastry and mincemeat,they are nice cooked with a little philly on top of the filling and sealed with pastry,eaten straight from the oven

I've worked my way through 3 boxes in as many weeks already. I'm rather partial to a mince pie.

Thankfully I haven't bought any yet, thanks for reminding me about these

MMM Mince pies ..

add them to flapjacks and jaffa cakes as food i cannot resist and try to avoid or i would be more rotund than i already am .

I only have to look at a mince pie and the pounds go on I may have one at Christmas but that's it. Knock yourselves out guys.

 

[Hitchington]

None as of yet. I'm going to wait for December to come. Boring, I know...

 

[Octet]

Nope, nothing yet... although reading this thread is making my mouth water, now where did I put the brandy butter?

Who mentioned Mince Pies? It's not even October and Xmas food already.

They are forbidden in our house until Xmas Eve, absolute manace to the waistline of this finely tuned athelete.............

Nope.. not mince pies just yet! I made a lovely lemon drizzle and a victoria sponge for McMillan Coffee Morning on Friday and that's me done baking for the week! If the OH wants a mince pie, Saintsbury is right around the corner...

They are available all year round by popular demand. I have abstained from all pie eating since last Christmas apart from momentary lapses when passing through Boroughbridge or Bedale on my bike on the way to Darlington. I'm unlikely to succumb to mince pies this year - not when there's gala pie to be had.

I think Mince Pies only taste nice at Christmas time; the rest of the year they just don't taste the same. Christmas officially starts when I hear Fairy tale of New York by The Pogues on the wireless for the first time.
