almond flavoured rice pudding with apricots

I was busy cooking the meat and completely forgot to put something vege in for me but there really was quite enough there for me to eat anyway.

oo that rice pudding sounds nice but i am only one who eats it so rarely get it

My grandfather had a milk pudding for his lunch every day. No matter what it was made with,be it sago,macaroni, tapioca,semolina or even bread and butter pudding,he would call it rice pie so we always have rice pie,whatever it is made with.

Dawnie, save some for me it sounds lovely.

oh i could eat another mouthful, mam n dad made a huge
toad in the hole
mash
roasties
parsnips
swede
carrots
sprouts

;-)

we're southern we dont like mushy peas lol

And we thought when Lissy moved out Sunday dinners would be a thing of the past but theyve asked to come round last two weeks so a mums godda do what a mums godda do lol.

Stray never used to like toad in the hole growing up could eat it if was sausages and yorking pud seperate but not together love it now

Please stop talking about Yorkshire pudding.

I cannot make Yorkshires to save my life.

Dawnie, I first had cabbage with onion and bacon in a pub in the Cambridge area, I think it was, and have done it myself since but not for ages. Thanks for reminding me, will do it soon.

O.h. doesn't have dessert as he is diabetic and usually fills up with lots of vegetables but I do love puddings, am looking forward to Christmas dinner at my son's gf's home, no cooking for me and Christmas pud for afters, lovely!

Apart from mushy peas, another thing you don't find further south is pease pudding. As an exiled Geordie, I really miss it. I tried making it myself a while back, but "pebble dashed" me specs and most of the kitchen when I used my stick blender on it!
