Now Give Us Our Figgy Pudding!

Merry Christmas! P and I had a very quiet Christmas this year. It was really quite nice and relaxing. Alina came over, and as per our tradition we tried some new recipes. A samosa recipe--which really ended up more like an Indian eggroll. Not really any known dish, per se, but tasty none the less. The real highlight was our figgy pudding. Alina heard this story on NPR and decided any recipe that required enough alcohol to drive the NPR reporters from the room AND required us to set it on fire not once, but twice was something we had to make. I think the figgy pudding is a new Morris Christmas tradition. It was delicious and loads of fun!!! I highly recommend it. This is Alina and I with our finished pudding.

Hi Mel,

Wow! That sounds good! What kind of alcohol did you use? Any action shots of the flames? Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and Peter! Please wish Alina a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from us too!
