AS WE HAVE SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME, WE BAKED STOLLEN ON CHRISTMAS EVE IN THE MORNING.
THE LAST COUPLE OF BATCHES HAVE BEEN VEGAN, AND ALSO RAISIN-FREE.
MAMA IS DEEPLY APPRECIATIVE OF THIS.
AND THE STOLLEN IS, IN FACT, BETTER THAN EVER.
WE SET THE TIMER ON THE KAMERA SO WE COULD GET IN A GROUP SHOT OF THE BAKERS IN ACTION.
FRITH ICING THE LOAVES WITH A SOY CREAMCHEESE AND MAPLE SYRUP BLEND OF OUR OWN DEVISING.
YUMMY CHRISTMAS EVE DINNER.
THEN OF COURSE THE LIGHTING OF THE HANNUKAH CANDLES. DOESN'T EVERYONE DO THIS ON CHRISTMAS EVE?
AND FINALLY.. PRESENTS.
THE RED PRESENT BAG HAS BEEN WITH US FOR OVER THIRTY YEARS. AND YET, IT IS STILL AS EXCITING AS EVER TO SEE IT FAT AND FULL, SITTING UNDER THE TREE EVERY YEAR.SOME VIDEO OF THE STIRRING PORTION OF THE STOLLEN EVENT
