Texasgal! never tried a mince pie, unbelieveable!!!! I can't remember a christmas without them.
Christmas cake, is like a mixed fruit and spice cake, usually with icing on the top.
I have been experimenting with the different mince pies on offer for about the last month!!! I needed to make sure we get the best ones for christmas!!!! The best are really my Mum's homemade ones, her pastry melts in your mouth.
I must dash to chase the squirrel that is helping himself to my holly berries outside the back door!!!!!!!!!
The cracker's still have hats, a silly toy and rubbish jokes, but we always have them at Christmas!!
