It went down a storm today at the family gathering and my family were giving my mum all the credit for it. Finally, at the end of the day she's like "Laura made the trifle," and everyone was like "Well it's better than yours."
Haa OWNED!

We had no brandy last year so I decided it would be a good idea to cover it in vodka... it wasn't

Oh Lexamaphone. Vodka has a really high alcohol content so it goes up in flaaaaames.
How d'you make a cat go woooooof?
Cover it in petrol and strike a match.
Hahah, I love that, almost as much as I hate cats.

I hate Christmas pudding. I hate all fruitcake. I demand a chocolate alternative every year.
And my grandmother used to put coins in it too. Or little silver charms that looked like Monopoly pieces. I used to get very excited about that as a child but then someone would crack a tooth and it wouldn't be fun anymore...
I also hate trifle. There's something about cream and jelly that just shouldn't go together. Blech.

You had me on your side until the bitching of the trifle.
Believe me, you haven't tasted trifle until you've tasted FP's trifle. Something about spongesoaked in raspberry juice that just makes me go mmm.
THINGS THAT MAKE YOU GO MMMMMMMMMMMMM.

I'd forgotten about the sponge part! Argh, that's what I hate the most when the cream soaks into it and it goes all soggy. It reminds me of arctic rolls we used to get fed for school dinner at primary school. Ugh, the memories.
But I'm sure yours is lovely.

I'll take a picture of the one I make for christmas day. Perhaps I'll send you some in a tupperware box and you can taste how good it is...although by the time it gets to you it'll have probably gone off...maybe that's not a good idea.
My trifle doesn't melt into each other, it's strictly separate but works together...if that makes sense. No wishy washy crap here.

Liz asked the same question when I told her about Christmas pudding.
What is that?! Chocolate? I feel so cut off from the rest of the world
Nope, not chocolate. It's like a sort of fruit cake, that you eat warm, with cream or brandy butter. Traditionally you're meant to set fire to it before you eat it, but that's just stupid.
WOAH that's so cool! That's like... fondue! I want fondue
