Some of us make our own mincemeat, and mince pies, and many of us pop a pack in our basket at our favourite supermarket. Shop bought mince pies can vary so much and when you have discovered the one that hits the spot there is no turning back!

Just goes to show individual tastes are so different, and so they should be or else we would all be the same -how dull !!
My wife Kathryn's butter pastry, over stuffed with mincemeat, and baked to a golden brown. Then, just a little sugar sprinkled on top.
She is quite ill now, but rises to the challenge of mince pies, Christmas Pud and a cake. But it now takes a couple of weeks to do it all, when once she would have done it in less than a day.
Yes, my wife will be up and around over Christmas, I hope, and two grand kids and I will cook Christmas dinner for everyone.
