First of the Season

I had my first mince pie of the year yesterday. They aren't my favourite Christmas food (that honour goes to Christmas Cake or possibly even the much maligned sprout), but somehow the mince pie signifies the start of the festive season most to my mind.

Thanks to Tescos and an over-enthusiastic wife and daughter, I've been munching on those since early November...mind you, I never seem to tire of them!

Still...come February and it'll be Hot Cross Buns!

Mmmm....mince pies.

I think I might have to buy some now.

After all, it is nearly xmas.
