Mincemeat
You ever had real mincemeat?
Not the kind with wax fruit and no, well, MEAT, but rather a concoction of home-candied citrus peel, apples, boiled beef heart, fat, nuts, brandy, rum, Marsala, and lots of spices?
Me either. But after our mixture has sat for a month, we will bake it into pies and I will give you a full report. It is a lot of chopping, so I hope it is tasty.
If not, well, you learn something every day.

have you ever made a real Christmas pudding (misnamed plum pudding by the many?
Now *that* is what I call an inspirational post. I've got to dig back through your archives (again) in search of that recipe. If it isn't there, I suppose Google will have to be the next stop.
