Today is Stir Up Sunday. The last Sunday before Advent. I made my xmas puddings today, after soaking the fruit is brandy overnight. They are now steaming away in the slow cooker for several hours. This process makes them very moist and full of flavour. Stir-up Sunday dates back to Victorian times, when cooks prepared the Christmas pudding by stirring the mixture and adding silver coins as good luck token!
Darn fine cakes as usual!! I can't believe Stacy took a bite out of the large cupcake before cutting it at her wedding! Actually, what am I saying, of course I can believe it...
