SUMMARY:'A Victorian Christmas' with Lucinda Dickens Hawksley
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the holiday like a Victorian with authentic dishes and customs beloved by all\, from the working classes to the royal family. \nIn 1843\, while Dickens was inventing the Christmas ghost story\, a London civil servant commissioned the first Christmas card and Windsor Castle displayed artificial Christmas trees and served turkeys for Christmas dinner. During the next five years\, the first recipe for Christmas pudding appeared\, Christmas crackers debuted\, and a London newspaper showcased Christmas trees to the world. \nHawksley explores these customs and more so you can experience the season authentically to period. Feast on Roast Goose with Sage and Onion Stuffing\, Brussels Sprouts on Buttered Toast\, and Christmas Cake while sipping a Cratchit Christmas Twist or Smoking Bishop Punch. Craft Golden Walnuts\, Kissing Bunches\, and Pomanders. Play board games such as Balderdash and Pachisi or parlor games including Charades and Snapdragon. Take a Christmas swim or sing “Christmastide” by Christina Rossetti. Meticulously researched\, this festive collection will make your yuletide merry.
