Perfect Christmas Pudding
24 California dried figs
1 1/2 cup Milk
1 cup Shortening
2 cup Soft bread crumbs, lightly packed down
3/4 cup Granulated sugar
3 tbsp Quick-cooking tapioca
1 1/2 cup Sifted all-purpose flour
2 1/2 tsp Baking powder
1 tsp Baking soda
1 tsp Powdered allspice
1 tsp Powdered cinnamon
1 tsp Powdered cloves
1/2 tsp Salt
1/3 cup Light molasses
1 cup Chopped, walnut meats (toasted)
3 Egg whites


With scissors, snip stems from figs. Then snip figs into small
pieces. Heat them in milk in top of double boiler until figs are soft
(about 20 minutes). Remove from heat, stir figs thoroughly until
mashed. Add shortening, bread crumbs, sugar and tapioca. Sift and
measure flour, and sift again with other dry ingredients. Add with
molasses and chopped walnuts. Fold in stiffly whipped egg whites.
Turn into generously buttered 2-quart mold, cover tightly and steam,
covered, for 3 hours on a rack in hot water that must come half-way
up side of mold. Or steam in individual molds. Serve piping hot,
with burning red candle on top. Deck with holly, and be generous with
the hard sauce! Serves 8-10.

Advice on losing weight

If you wish to get thinner and improve your overall vitality, then, as any dietician will tell you, you should follow a meticulously calculated healthy-minded dietary regime. In a perfect world, this ought to contain 5 standard portions of grains, cereals and vegetables on a daily basis and also contain the right proportion of proteins, carbohydrates and fats.

In deciding on a weight loss program, the important thing is to attempt to cut back on your ingestion of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.

When starting a weight loss program, people far too often focus on chain store and brand name foods sold as 'low fat'. To do this is most certainly a mistake, insofar as a food item could be low in fats, but whilst still remaining dangerously high in calories and carbs.

Drink more water. Every now and then when going through a normal morning, you imagine that you need a snack when in actuality you may simply want a cool glass of water or fruit juice. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are somewhat similar, albeit one of them can result in weight gain and one is healthy.

Instead of concentrating on the many foods you should remove from your daily routine, concentrate on the healthy foods that you should introduce to your daily routine. If one can manage to introduce a few nutritious grains, fruit and vegetables into your weight loss program, you will be amazed to find that you feel more full and have a significantl;y reduced probability of giving in to those unwholesome mid-day potato chips.
