December Delights - 7 December 2015

It has been a really lovely day. TheHubs™ saw this really cool way to make mincemeat tarlets (I think that's the best description) and so we went in search of mincemeat....and couldn't find any. We must have gone to seven different grocery stores, and on the last one (isn't that the way it always goes?) we found it! I bought 4 jars of the stuff. The tarlets, which are dead easy, turned out perfect, and I was dead chuffed with them. I also made turkey meatloaf tonight, which turned out great. A friend of mine gave me a terrific meatloaf recipe that is basically foolproof, and juicy and tasty to boot. I have learned that the trick is not to be afraid to season it. I chuck everything in it but the kitchen sink, and it tastes lovely.

I think it's off to the shower and then in bed with a good book for me.
