#mincepies
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

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? !!
