The last one

There comes a time in every Christmas when "the last mince pie" is finally eaten.  Its a very sad day here as it means the end of mince pies until December, which is literally months away.

Before you worry that this might be a stale mince pie, let me assure you that this was one of a batch of 4 made with the very last scrapings of the mincemeat just earlier this week.  

I would have taken a more exciting picture, it has to be said, but for reasons that I don't need to bore you with, I've spent today unexpectedly stuck inside enduring a series of meetings and appointments and in waiting in between them.  Still, its been great to come home and enjoy that last mince pie at the end of it all :-)
