Christmas Cake - Christmas Pudding - and Sherry Trifle.
I always welcome a fruitcake lecture. Too bad Mrs. H cannot have brandy. For me, a martini is Christmas in a glass.
And hard sauce for the pudding!Christmas Cake - Christmas Pudding - and Sherry Trifle.
My Maternal Grandmother made wonderful Divinity. The funny thing is that my, Dad, her Son in Law, loved it most. She made it every year for him. I need to find her recipe and try it again too.I love a good fruitcake, but my most strong food association with Christmas was my mothers home made Divinity.
I have not had it since the early 1970's when I left home, and she passed in 1983.
This thread has me thinking of trying a batch in her memory.
Creamed pearl onions and green peas are good, too.Creamed pearl onions.
That sounds pretty amazing, sir.My particular specialty is my lemon orange-ginger cookie.
That sounds pretty amazing, sir.
Thank you, sir!I'll post the recipe when I'm not on my phone.

Merry Christmas, sir!Merry Christmas everyone!
