    So. Chritmas cake, mincemeat and puddings made. Most parcels ordered for relatives in the UK: thinking I might be away next week, and wanting to use Amazon's super-saver delivery option, I ordered them on Wednesday. To my surprise, I had a steady str...

  • Christmas puddings

    Posted on Saturday November 28th, 2009 at 11:09 in food, cooking, christmas

    It turns out that I won't be going to Germany next week. Long story, but basically inefficiency and complications in the immigration department mean that our friend still doesn't have official residency here, so - since she's not a European citizen -...

    We've had friends staying in our guest flat for the past two and a half weeks. They used to live in Cyprus, so they know the area well, and have plenty of other friends who are still here. We had a few meals with them, and introduced them to some of...

    So I made my Christmas cake two and a half weeks ago. And this morning, since I woke much earlier than I needed to, I made this year's batch of mincemeat. But both of those are better if given at least a few weeks to mature. I've started thinking ab...
