Pecan pie, pumpkin pie, plum loaf and, probably in Florida, Key Lime pie perhaps?

We used to make a deep key lime pie for desert. Turkey for main with fresh cranbury sauce and of course Indian Corn and biscuits.
Deep frying the whole turkey is very popular, but be very careful.

You can get a packet of plain sponge pudding mixture and throw in you own fruit and a liitle sherry or brandy and you will think you are back in UK they sell them in PUBLIXS AND WALMART and you can steamed or microwave .
Have a lovely christmas .

We will be doing the same Ida but I will be cheating when it comes to desserts. Perkins restaurants sell numerous desserts (apple pies, lemon meringue) or the supermarkets do some lovely cheesecakes. Not as adventurous as pumpkin pie or Blotts other suggestions but will keep my lot happy!

The ordinary US sausages are the little ones except they call them sausages and not chipolatas!

You can buy Christmas puddings in Florida. Just have to look for one. I bought one a couple of years ago.

Unless they've got no animal suet in the mincemeat, then they're not allowed.

If you'd have been stopped by Customs with the Christmas pudding last year and it contained animal suet, then you would have been in trouble if you didn't declare it on your customs form. I can't see it's worth the risk of a fine and having it confiscated when you can buy them there?

Have you tried the shop in Old Town - sorry can't remember the name. I do remember they sold things like Marmite, gravy granules, walkers crisps etc etc. They may have puddings in, although be warned, they will probably charge an arm and a leg for your Christmas treat.

I think I'll buy several pies and lots of cream and brandy. it might be best to make my own mince meat when I'm there. It's quite easy to do.
