It’s probably because I’m addicted to anything that could be deemed ‘twee’, but I do love a home-made gift.
Anything hand knitted, home sewn or personally stewed gets a two thumbs up (or the modern, less geeky equivalent…) from me.
Viv’s home-made mince meat, complete with floral cloth lid (*love*), does look a bit better than my slightly charred Earl Grey tea loaf…
Now, can I use this in my own mince pies and still call them home-made? Or would I guilty of mince meat theft?

I’m guessing it’s a light form of cheating hehehehe, but completely allowed ;). If it were the other way around, buying the pastry already made and making your own mince meat, you would say it’s home-made, so why not? xxx
Ah that looks too cute! You can’t beat an ole’ retro jam jar even if its not jam thats in it! Ha!! X
Yum! I would literally eat this out of a jar with a spoon – I love mincemeat, and the pretty floral top is a lovely touch,
This is such a cute little gift. I love it! I want to make Christmas cookies and give them to my friends for Christmas.
