Oooohhh yeah - yum. I remember placing chestnuts on the bars of the grill of an open fire and roasting them that way. Mincemeat fruit loaf. Moistened even more with a small tot of Brandy !!!
I like American fruit cake--- i've tried the British kind and it was a bit pungent for me Fudge (Chocolate or peanutbutter)
I like them, but officially I'm not allowed them as they contain vitamin 'K' which counteracts upon the anti-coagulent medicine I have been prescribed.
Yuk, - if you''re going to toast bread, you have to toast BOTH sides. Mashed sweet potato & Parsnip with butter as the base for Haggis - Haggis 'neeps & Tatties. !!!
