“Christmas is the season for kindling the fire of hospitality.” - Washington Irving
With less than a week to go before the big bearded man in red makes his way down the chimney, the Hungry Historian is coming at you with a gift of his own. A holiday gift guide made up of his favourite historical reads!
Sure, historical books might not be your bag, but when it comes to shopping for those hard to buy for people on your Xmas list, you might be thankful that you tuned in for this episode! Just remember to get a gift receipt with any purchases.
As a festive Featured Recipe, Chef Money is rolling in with another tasty treat to make this Holiday season that much sweeter. Sure, it might not be the most appropriately named of my recipes, but you won't care about that once you try some Christmas Crack!
This is a recipe that will come in handy for my next episode when we use it as an ingredient in another featured recipe, but you'll have to wait for that one. Trust me, it will be worth it!
Cheers!
