It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas<br />
Christmas is a great time for passing down recipes that are tried and true becoming<br />
traditional family favourites. The owner of this recipe says her mum used to make<br />
the pudding on Christmas Eve and would take the bowl and wooden spoon around<br />
everyone in the house to stir the mixture and make a wish.<br />
