A mystery uncovered
Dec. 4th, 2008 08:18 pmDon´t laugh too much ...but I have sampled a genuine English Christmas pudding for the first time! I have always read or heard about it at school, seen it in films, I have a recipy - but I have never eaten it. Today, before the Exams begin, we had a small Christmas party for everyone who signed in (30 people) and the topic was: English Christmas.
As usual on Thursdays, I couldn´t attend myself, I had to be in the library. However I was given a sample by the lecturers, a piece of pudding with custard, and a small, nice mincemeat pie with cranberries.
Um...well...the Legend was quite good but frankly, I can live without it. Finally my curiosity was satisfied, thank you. The pie was a pleasant surprise, the cranberry filling was very juicy and not very sweet! I was also the only one who actually recognised the cranberries!
So now, equipped with this knowledge and lots of calories, I am preapred for tomorrow exams!
