Stir-Up Sunday! Made my usual two: recipes from Dorothy Sleightholme and Grace Mulligan. This year I also used one from A Vintage Christmas magazine. See you in 1 month, my beauties!

I made one version of Christmas Pudding yesterday, and the steaming water discolored the foil. The puds will be in the fridge for 2 months. Tomorrow I’ll use another recipe and make 2 more.

I am talking all things c19th with students today, a whistle stop tour of dress & silhouette. It doesn’t come more high #Victorian than this plum pudding of a dress. It looks like a decorated Dundee cake rich in nuts and cherries and thick treacly shades. Mid #1870s @MoMuAntwerp

Today in NJ history: November 14, 1889; Journalist Nellie Bly (pen name of Elizabeth Seaman) left Hoboken on a steamship to travel around the world in less than 80 days, beating the time in the Jules Verne novel. She succeeded, returning to Jersey City 72 days later.

Cleaning out my books and found these two from the 1940s. Our school was getting rid of these in the 1970s after they had been used in Home Economics classes.
