Perfect time for Mincemeat pie!
Mince pies are a favorite food of Father Christmas. Children leave one or two
mince pies on a plate at the foot of the chimney (along with a small glass of
brandy, sherry or milk, and a carrot for the reindeer) as a thank you for
filling their stockings.
When making Mince, only stir the mincemeat mixture clockwise because stirring
it counterclockwise is bad luck for the upcoming year. It’s traditional to make
a wish while eating the first mince pie of the season. Always eat mince pies in
silence. It is also believed that eating a mince pie each day of the 12 days of
Christmas is good luck for the upcoming year. Mince pies should have a star on
top, depicting the Christmas star that led the Magi and Shepherds to baby
Jesus.
