Nothing like that in my family. I'm the one who's going to start it.

My grandmother always used to but then she stopped doing it and we'd make her go and wrap some and poke them in while we waited. Honestly grandmothers sometimes! Our girls want the same thing now.Sarah - Red Ginghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11288614075211978697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4089316062583477747.post-53211625197768487262010-11-20T17:38:28.645+01:002010-11-20T17:38:28.645+01:00Ohhh... have fun stirring and tasting and smelling...Ohhh... have fun stirring and tasting and smelling!Brenda @ Its A Beautiful Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02955486477303938670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4089316062583477747.post-4450109852005844492010-11-20T17:28:12.047+01:002010-11-20T17:28:12.047+01:00I was really surprised to see grated carrots and M...I was really surprised to see grated carrots and MASHED POTATOES in the recipe, I had no idea it could be made with such ingredients. Mind you, being a Kraut and not having grown up with Xmas puds, I am somewhat at a disadvantage, lol. I don't make them, I buy them, and I absolutely adore them, with lashings of brandy butter and cream.
