mince pies
Current mood: like nigella and not fanny
Category: Cookery
alice seems pleased with her new advent calendar. it is a bit crinkled because it was raining when i got it and there wasnt room for me and the advent calendar under my yellow sowester so i had to drag it home. and that is why it is crinkled and im sorry ok but i am only small and anyway if you want a better calendar why dont you go and get one yourself you lazy worthless ragdoll.
now it is the weekend (i wrote this at the weekend but forgot to make it go on the internet) it is time to do some christmas baking. as you can probably imagine (that is empathy) it is not easy to handle dough and mince meat and brillo pads when you are made of cloth and stuffing. brillo pads are extra dangerous. if you get the pink stuff on you then you will die instantly.
my solution is to use yellow rubber gloves. these are a bit big so if i cut off two fingers from a large pair i can squeeze a paw into each and then i wont get wet stuffing or catch cancer.
i am going to make mince pies today. i saw a programme on tv last year and there was a hippy called hugh something who makes mad food and he said that in the olden days mince pies had real mince in them and they were savoury. that is what i am going to make. the ingredients are as follows.
1lb mince meat (i dont know what meat yet. i will check the mouse traps before i decide.)
some onions (i dont know how many so i will use lots just in case.)
lard (plenty)
some pastry? im getting a bit out of my depth here
eggs marmalade milk marmite butter and a sprig of holly.
