I am resolved: A Christmas Pudding

Upon my return at-long-last home found a box from my amazon wishlist which included, from some kind soul, 2 pudding basins!

I once tried (successfully) to make a pudding with an improvised setup.  It was a anxious experience.

This time I want to do something particular.

RESOLVED: I shall make an English Christmas Pudding.

I have already found a suet supply.

I will eventually need to obtain sprigs of holly.  It won’t grow here in this drastic place.

Now: I must look for recipes!

In the meantime, here are images from a book I recall from my distant childhood, depicting “Max” preparing what I now at long last understand to be The Christmas Pudding!  As a kid I had always wondered what he was making.

Any resemblance to hamsters on sidebars is entirely intentional.
