A...Liz, Happy Michaelmas! Or Blessed Michaelmas? <br /><br />As you have posted so wonderfully about Michaelmas in the past, I didn't think you would have a new one this year. So I just pulled up your previous posts and they read as wonderfully as ever :-)<br /><br />Peter Reinhart writes about the Scottish (Celtic?) tradition of a harvest bread, Struan, that is baked on the eve of Michealmas. (In "Brother Juniper's Bread"). I just discovered this recipe in the past month and have baked it a few times. Lovely bread, and yet another way to celebrate! (I see you have posted a recipe of a harvest bread for Lammas Day.) <br /><br />Regardless, may you go with the Angels today!Mary Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443994462169750739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559862206054673677.post-81521160939979511732012-09-22T06:09:57.920+01:002012-09-22T06:09:57.920+01:00Heidi !

I have wondered since if it was actually fondue, just not very well translated, but didn't he put it on a stick? I'll have to go and look it up now...thanks Mary Beth.

And the Christmas breakfast that the four Little Women sacrificed for the poor family down the road... <br /><br />Nice job as usual, Liz!MAry Bethnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559862206054673677.post-50015913638064163252012-09-21T08:34:42.715+01:002012-09-21T08:34:42.715+01:00I've been looking for a good boiled fruit cake...I've been looking for a good boiled fruit cake recipe and this one looks great.
