Pour a jar of two fruit salad (peach & pear) gently over the cake. Then prepare some jelly (I'm an aussie -going to use my terminology) - port wine flavour is the traditional choice. leave to set in fridge.<br />Dish up with cold or warm custard and sweetened cream and icecream.<br />mmmmmmm<br />Merry Christmas to you all<br />bronnyBronnyBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06729424866466315098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-46715709728717004072010-12-24T13:33:42.363-05:002010-12-24T13:33:42.363-05:00Sounds as though you have it all under control Con...Sounds as though you have it all under control Coni.

We have it every year, made in a bundt pan with a little bit of powdered sugar icing drizzled over it. I'm also making deviled eggs and pumpkin rolls. <br /><br />I'd love to see what you put in your potato salad. There's so many variations and I like a lot of them. This time mine is like deviled egg potato salad with green onions added. I'm making gooey butter coffee cake for Christmas breakfast also. <br /><br />The jello sounds great. I'm making an apple, pecan salad but may rethink that and go for jello. I've never thought about making pickled beets for Christmas. I don't think they'd go over well with everyone else but I'd end up eating them all.<br /><br />Merry Christmas Coni,Stewey and Aunt Chrissy. I love reading your blog. Thanks for sharing it with us.Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01243865747879612723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-50269923676693491062010-12-23T23:37:53.237-05:002010-12-23T23:37:53.237-05:00Good Plan!

I ALWAYS wait until the last minute to do things. Don't you?<br /><br />Tell Aunt Chrissy that I do own a circular saw, a power screw driver and a cordless drill. Oh, and since I live a few (?) states away I guess I am independent. <br />So does she still want another sister? Heck, I already have four (and five brother too) One more would be easy. And one who would spoil me would be great. LOL<br /><br />I hope you, Chrissy, Bosco and Stewey have a wonderful Christmas Eve and Day!<br />Kathy<br />and Rory too. <br />PS. I can't let Rory read your blog again. He keeps stealing the baby Jesus from the manger. And he chewed the head off one of the lambs. I am positive that he got the idea from Stewey. But al least Rory doesn't water the drapes.<br /><br />LOLKathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05713788292722336096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-74300759928757005132010-12-23T18:26:03.083-05:002010-12-23T18:26:03.083-05:00Coni..my mom made Jewish coffee cake at Christmas ...Coni..my mom made Jewish coffee cake at Christmas too.

I used to think that mom's potato salad was the only potato salad in the whole world that was edible. Over the years, my making of mom's potato salad has morphed it into Pamela's potato salad. It was the only one I deemed acceptable to pass my lips. However, recently a girlfriend showed up at a potluck with a killer potato salad. Who knew??? From one connoisseur to another, I'd love it if you would share your recipe in your blog. I think that would be hunky dory! Merry Christmas to you and Stewey (and Aunt Chrissy too) from 72 degree Tucson, Arizona.
