Though we eat little flesh and drink no wine,Yet let's be merry; we'll have tea and toast;Custards for supper, and an endless hostOf syllabubs and jellies and mincepies,And other such ladylike luxuries.

Mincemeat is raisins, spices and suet. It is Christmas incarnate and utterly divine. We use it for mincepies mostly.

We have something called mincemeat which is what this sounds like. It’s raisins, spices and suet. Used in mincepies a lot at Christmas and is absolutely exceptional. Your nan had amazing taste.

Got to love a homemade brown sauce.

Last day - last hours! - of the @northodoxpress.bsky.social Xmas #booksale! Get in before it ends - browsing books is MUCH better than taking down the decorations! (Especially if you have any mincepies or other goodies left to consume...). Don't forget that coupon code - NORTHODOXMAS!

As Northodox elegantly zigs (and therefore zags away from Short form #Sci-Fi) a reminder that their sale ALSO includes all their last year's titles, including my retro-themed collection A Short History of the Future! Last chance to get it on sale? Quite possibly!

Nice birding down the coast, approx 60 km as the birds flies from my home.
Lots of nice species (long tailed ducks, 6 sea eagles, scaup, crested tit, ravens, crossbills, out of 40 odd species).
#mincepies = powerfood
Came back to this! Snow shovels out

I hope you've had a relaxing holiday season so far. I've eaten my weight in mincepies and have enjoyed every mouthful 😁 Time to get outside and get moving again!

And that’s a wrap for Christmas Eve … my 6 year old is fizzing like a bottle of pop - and Father Christmas now has 24 home made mince pies (skilfully cut out my son) left out for him to eat by tmw morning!

Making a batch of the Geordie classic, ham and pease pudding stotties, to take to the pub. It's a nice little tradition in @thefreetradeinn.bsky.social on Xmas Eve, started by one of the regulars who sadly passed away this year. There'll be mincepies & stout cupcakes on the bar too - help yourselves

Dec 1922: Custard ad from Bird's

(+Christmas Pudding; Trifle; Double Cream; Raspberry Jam; Sweet Almonds; Ratafia Biscuits; and Sponge Cakes)

«This year serve
Bird's Custard
with your Xmas pudding»
This is a vintage advertisement for custard, suggesting it as a hot sauce for plum pudding. A recipe for trifle is also included. The ad promotes the custard as an alternative to cream, highlighting its richness and sweetness. This year serve Bird's Custard with your Xmas pudding BIRD'S Custard as Hot Sauce crowns the Plum Pudding - and the pudding is the crown of the Christmas feast! A generous spoonful of Bird's Custard to each helping gives a bright golden touch to the dark pudding, and blends in delightfully with its rich fruitiness. and note the improvement. Remember, Bird's Custard is rich and good, yet it never disagrees; mingled with Bird's Custard the sweetness of Christmas Pudding never cloys. The very newest notion - Bird's Custard whisked, and served cold as a cream. This is the very thing to replace cream with fruit, mincepies, etc. It is simply splendid in tartlets, cream- horns or everything with which thick or clotted cream is used. You can transform Bird's Custard into a lovely rich cream by whisking. Prepare the Bird's Custard exactly according to directions and allow it to cool and just set. Then whisk thoroughly and you have delicious Bird's Custard Cream. The finest TRIFLE you ever tasted. 6 Penny Sponge Cakes. Ratafia Biscuits - 4 ozs. Sweet Almonds (chopped)-2 ozs. Raspberry Jam - 3 tablespoonfuls. Double Cream - ½ pint. Castor Sugar-1 tablespoonful. Sherry or Raisin Wine - 1 wine glass. Brandy-half a wine glass Bird's Custard - 1 pint. Cut the Sponge Cakes into slices, spread each with Jam, and cover the bottom of a glass dish. Sprinkle over the Ratafia Biscuits and soak with the Wine and Brandy (if preferred, Raspberry Vinegar sweetened or syrup, may be used instead). Prepare the Bird's Custard and pour while hot into the dish. Sprinkle over the Chopped Almonds. Beat up the Cream and Sugar together, and heap lightly all over the top of the dish. Decorate by sprinkling "Hundreds and Thousands" and Silver Beads and small pieces of...

I was thinking about trying one of the Christmas recipes in our old family recipe book (dated 1804 by Sarah Milner).
But the Mince Pies contain TRIPE! Maybe the ginger nuts? !!
