Unpredictable tastes

[rustydog]

The Christmas pudding went up in flames! \o/ And to my surprise, most people tried it and didn't spit it out, and my mom said sincerely that she wants me to make it every year. I thought it was delicious, especially with the brandy butter. Low expectations ftw! On the other hand, no one but my parents and me had any noodle kugel. I don't know why, but the others seemed to feel that the idea was gross enough that they didn't even want to give it a try. It can't be just the name's similarity with "Kegel." Oh well, with the considerably greater cash, time and effort (and alcohol) I put into the pudding, I'm glad that was the one that was successful.

The Fuzz had a blast with the unwrapping after dinner.
