No Christmas pudding for us this year.
I have not been able to get to the commissary ahead of the hunters in order to get suet. It seems all the deer hunters add suet to their deer meat (what - are they grinding it up together? That's the only thing I can figure out.) So, if I think about it after deer season, I might go ahead and get some and just save it for next year. Or maybe we'll go ahead and make it and eat it, just to be sure I'm doing it right, so I won't have a great big flop next Christmas.
