I made a traditional English pudding -- lit it on fire and everything!! I didn't make it in time for Stir Up Sunday -- I had not read this article, but was reading a GK Chesterton Devotional ("Winter Fire") and he gave the idea and recipe (I read that part of the devotion after Stir Up Sunday, had no clue about it before that). And I looked back and saw the collect for the day , saying "stir up". In any case, I plan to make it a yearly tradition, and actually stir up the pudding on Stir Up Sunday and let it mature for a month before lighting it on fire on Christmas Eve (or Day), celebrating the Light of the World becoming incarnate! Thank you for publishing this article.
