😃 Thanks Eunice. I showed them to my Mum and Dad on Facetime and they looked really envious. Sad that I won’t be able to visit them this Christmas.
Look after yourself! 💕
Delicious cakes, they must smell wonderful and taste better, I love them. This Christmas is going to be different, but with the vaccine next Christmas I am sure that we will all meet as always. I am going to spend Christmas alone with my dear Mother: the two of us together. Happy advent Take good care of yourself and stay safe. Good weekend. Very affectionate greetings from Margarita 😀🤗✨✨
They do smell good Margarita. And on Friday I baked Christmas cookies too and the house smelt of vanilla and oranges. Wonderful! 😉 Take care and have a lovely third advent with your mother. ❄️🎄🤗
Just written my Monday vase post in which I advocate homemade mincemeat, so it’s a real coincidence to see this now! AND I have just realised that I have previously posted my recipe so must go back and add the link.r post made me check, so thanks for that! Is there a connection with IAVOM and mince pies? Looks that way… 😉
They certainly are! 🤪 But if I had made the mincemeat earlier I could have added even more brandy or some sherry and then let it soak for a few days. 😉
hey!! i am so happy that i found your blog online. it is o different and unique. i hope you like mine too but just know that you are a wonderful writer and blogger

Fruit mince pies? They look delicious. 🙂
Thanks Joanne, and they are all for me as nobody else likes/can eat them! 😉
They look yummy. I’ve been getting mine from the British shop (in Belgium!) but yours look better.
Thanks Sel. I haven’t even been able to find any jars of mincemeat here, let alone a mince pie! So I made my own. 😉
Necessity is the mother of invention 😉
Yum! ❤
I think the desire to do some Christmas baking is slowly coming over me at last! 😉
Mom would have loved these Dad too.

❤ times have to get better this is sickening for so many families.
Oh goodness. They look delicious! Time to bake the pies. 🙂
And perhaps some German Christmas cookies too…. 😉😃
They look fantastic and very delicious, Cathy. They’re visually very appealing, and I know they will taste like holiday goodness. 🙂
I love them Debra, and my partner doesn’t, and with no visitors coming these are all for me this year! 😉😊

I am intrigued how you will manage to connect them… 😉

Looks delicious! I have never tasted mince meat pie.
They are a huge tradition in the UK, but not known or much appreciated here in Germany, so maybe an acquired taste! 😉
Those look truly fabulous. Are they a bit boozy?
They certainly are! 🤪 But if I had made the mincemeat earlier I could have added even more brandy or some sherry and then let it soak for a few days. 😉
Awesome! Those look scrumptious!
Thanks Leif!
