Actually, not all that bad .... the dumplings were really good, so good that I made them twice. The first batch was the better of the two ... beginners luck.

I will most definitely have to work on this one.
For Christmas, after the I get my tree up (I go out into the bush and cut my own) I think I will try to make a few dishes that I remember: trifle (?), mince pies, maybe I will attempt a cake.
Oh, and to keep on track, it is sort of traditional in this area that folks start thinking of christmas in a big way once halloween is over.
