British steamed pudding “spotted dick”
I love how everything is called pudding in UK, it’s fantastically confusing. OED says a pudding was originally an animal stomach stuffed with stuff. I even saw sausages and pea soup(!) labeled as pudding. Then there is Yorkshire pudding, which is basically a popover. Don’t even get me started on the slang side of this term. Anyway, I’m just making a conversation, I and Mr&Mrs Bear are having tea 🫖💐 Originally we celebrated Mr B’s birthday with a godless amount of doughnuts, but now I’m hell bent on calling everything a pudding, so a doughnut is a pudding, and vice versa. Happy belated birthday Mr B🧸🐻

I love it! Should I can you puddin' too? 🤣😉 My grandmother made some kind of dessert called spotted dick too. But it was a roll that was a light chocolate with Marshmallows in it and I think coconut on the outside It's been years since I had it so I can't remember exactly. She was from Canada. But I'm going to ask my mom about it. Maybe I just thought it was called that and she was talking about something else. Both my mom and grandma made Yorkshire pudding. It's delicious. I haven't had that in years either. I should ask my mom to teach me. I tried cream puffs once but failed miserably. Thanks for sharing in Mr Bear's memory! This pudding you posted looks great!!! Did you go to England?

John🎹 I really enjoyed your performance! I hope you keep practicing. My fav joke: a tourist got lost in Manhattan🗽 and asked a local grumpy man how to get to Carnegie Hall. The grump (Jascha Heifetz🎻) responded, “practice practice practice”

Erika, long time no see! How have you been? I saw this pudding on the TV show “Call the Midwife.” Two lovable nuns were fighting over a spotted dick pudding and I was sold.

Ad🦄 I found a place that serves the particular breakfast you speak of, well, it’s Irish (Daniel O’Connell☘️), but that’s close enough. I double checked, the breakfast comes with black pudding. Let me call my son and see if he’d take me there. My problem with your breakfast is baked beans (not a fan)🥲

Bear🧸🤣🤣 I am still chuckling, picturing Mr B at the luau🌺, looking extremely happy at the buffet. He is adorable. Cream puffs are difficult to make, kudos for even trying. I think it would be wonderful if you make Yorkshire pudding with your grandmother’s recipe that was passed down the generations. Heirloom. That makes me think… did Mr B have any special recipes he created? If he did, we should pass them down! I have a feeling he had his own secret recipe for guacamole🤣🥑

Hi Matt, sup buddy? I was looking at your walking stat. Well done🏆 I have a new job now, I am on my feet for 12 hours but I barely register 10,000 steps per shift. 12,000 max. Very disappointing….
