Today’s task: Cooking – Christmas Pudding

The recipe above is close to the one I used. I was a little ‘creative’ with some of the ingredients. I used sherry instead of brandy; butter instead of suet; and added a grated carrot! My late mother-in-law always added a carrot along with the other ingredients. She showed me how to make the pudding and today I felt she was watching over me closely and making sure I got it right.

It made me think how good it is to actually do something alongside someone close – it helps build positive memories in their absence.
