Posted by andrea in: Recipes and Food

Blend all ingredients, then, after taking a few big slugs, find half a fruit sticker.

That’s better than finding half a worm, isn’t it? So, did you drink the rest of it?

Heh. After I wrote that post I took another drink (why waste it?) and found the other half. :)

A friend of mine was once making her annual Christmas Pudding. She thought she’d be uber smart and make two: one for that season’s consumtion, the other to stay rum-soaked fresh in he back of the fridge for next year.

She pulled the second one out of the fridge a year later to prep it to eat. She couldn’t figure out why it had little silver flecks in it.

It turns out, she’d drank so much of the rum while making it, she forgot to remove the foil wrapper from the butter.

The Obligatory Blurb

My name is Andrea and I live in the Westboro area of Ottawa with my husband Mark and our two daughters Emma (11) and Sarah (9). I am a writer, web content manager, and family photographer. I've been blogging since 1999. I have a passion for words (on their own or strung together), the arts, healthy living, family travel, good food, and sharing the best of Ottawa for parents and kids. I also love vegetables, books, and great design. The Fishbowl is my whiteboard, water cooler, and journal ... all rolled into one. If you're so inclined you can read more about me here >>
