I got the Christmas cake cooked this weekend. I think I procrastinated over it a little because it was such a big undertaking last year. So it didn't go in the oven until 7.10pm on Sunday night (for a three hour cook...) but it is done, and it smells lovely. I had candied peel and raisins from Australia, and instead of glace cherries, I put in dried cranberries. Downside of cooking before Christmas - I just want to eat it!
The blanched almond in the centre standing on its end is the six year olds contribution - he is very keen on things not just lying flat.
