Because of reasons, I have been extraordinarily tardy in making a Christmas cake this year. But it is done, at last, using my grandmother’s recipe, of course. It won’t have the full rich flavour that it would have had, had I made it six weeks ago, but I shall make up for that by ladling plenty of brandy into it. And into me.
That is all.
Maybe you could skip the cake and just imbibe the brandy and eat the yummy icing??
