Ah its not just the kids though. The feast is for all the kids and parents.

Anyhow, decided Yule Log it is, who doesn't like chocolate cake rolled around chocolate butter icing, layered with chocolate butter icing. Where can it go wrong?:unsure:

Well you 2 are just weird and not really English. I could do the good old fashioned fruit cocktail out of a tin and a can of carnation:sneaky:

I like it, hubby likes it and my kid likes it. I only have to make enough for 12 people, so if I can get 9 kids to try a bit I'm sorted:p

Can ask my mum if you like - she's saved them all since 1965 in a little plastic bag in the bottom drawer in the kitchen....

Having your kid take mince pies for a school holiday party will surely have him ostracised until...well...forever, as "that kid who brings in mince pies." They will NOT go over well with kids.

From my first holidays in the UK - I remember....wine, beer, crackers (yes! Those pull things that we really don't use here in USA, but you can find them in World Market, and our crackers are saltines...for cheese... anyhow...), spongy cakes with jams in them...how about one of those?

I doubt fruit cake will go over well either.

Apple cobbler is always nice. (When I think UK dessert, though, I think bannoffee pie!)
