Festive Stuff

 

Youngest grandchild is 17, oldest 24

I still hang up their 'stockings' They're my grandchildren so of course they're good kids all year round. Right???

 Santa fills their stockings with Chocolates and goodies every Xmas Eve

 

Christmas assembly line

Most of the cakes K bakes are given away . That's the Christmas tradition here

First on the list are the recently bereaved.  It's not done for them to make sweets the first year of mourning

English mince tarts

Most of these are given away too

But I ate quite a few so

I have to make some more

 tomorrow. 

I don't like the Pastry although I've dived into YouTube looking for the best recipe.  Judy in England has given me her traditional recipe. 

I'll let you know how it goes

The filling is homemade by me.  I've eaten a few spoonfuls of that too.

It's very moreish*. 

 

*I looked up that word. It's one my mother used.  The meaning? 

You just want more and more
