It's too soon to bake the dinner rolls and Cinnamon buns yet...
Our village's Santa Claus Parade is this afternoon and I need some baking for after the parade. BTW this is the first year DH has had the Christmas lights up before the parade in a great many years.
Anyone else doing Christmas baking?
A tradition from my childhood was something called Carrot Pudding. It was steamed in a mold pan then turned out of the mold in a pretty shape. I know it had carrots, raisins and nuts, but not sure of what else. It seems there was something white shredded in it too, but I don't know if it was apples or potatoes. It was a very moist dessert.
Is this anything like the carrot pudding you make? I'd love to see your recipe sometime in the future when you are not busy with holiday baking.
