Eventually the baskets become fewer until there's only one, I've always
had ripe tomatoes on Christmas Eve to have with the pork pie (a family
tradition) using this method.


Pork Pie! I could just murder a pork pie! It's ages since I had one. Just
can't get them in France. Not many things I miss about the UK but...
(drifts off into a fantasy thinking about eating a nice pork pie). Wish
you hadn't mentioned them :-(


I make ours - you could do the same!

Funny you should say that - I mentioned to Lillian (my spouse) about your
posting and my reply, which made her smile, then offer to make me one.
Apparently she used to make them herself years ago before meeting me.
Something to look forward to next week :-)

David in Normandy, happy at the prospect of a nice pork pie.
