It's important to have seasonal foods and special dishes. I think in these days when everything is always available year round it turns what was once special and joyful into something ordinary and mundane. Eating seasonally with what is naturally locally available and making season specific dishes I think is much better for the spirit and overall life balance (of course admit it's easier to say when you live in a milder climate and not cold places akin to Siberia!)

I prefer the older traditions and honoring ancestors and appreciation for the turning wheel of the year. I really dislike the Halloween as presented in America. It is a very negative connotation we are teaching children. I suspect this will be the LAST Halloween in America, when the sleepy finally wake up. Thank you for keeping the ancient traditions alive Terri and Lol! Happy Samhain 🎃.

Your cake looks wonderful. I would love to taste a piece. I bake my own bread but only an occasional Wacky (cocoa and baking powder) cake. Lately I've just finished cutting and hauling, out of the forest, four cords of firewood, replenishing my stack of wood for the winter. I burn wood to heat this small cabin so that hard work is necessary every year. Lately I started digging all my dozens of dahlias out in the garden for winter storage. Another big job for a man my age. I'm 68 right now. In recent weeks the dahlias have been blooming beautifully and it is always a shame to see them finished. Tonight is Halloween, a quiet time in this village for quite a few years as so much has changed over time. When I was younger I would dress up as the headless horseman, riding my horse through the village. Usually people that would see me would recognize my horse so they would know it was me, so not too frightening. Yesterday a herd of 18 wild turkeys came to visit my yard and today five of my deer friends came to see me while I was working in the garden. It's always a joy to have the wild things come to visit. It seems, with these short days and bright autumn colour, winter can't be too far off now. Seeing you make your cake makes me think I should make something special for this special season. Seeing your dogs play with each other the way they do puts a smile on my face. Thanks for sharing again. Take care and enjoy the remainder of the season. Cheers!

Ginger ale is a good substitute,if you could get cane sugar would be better. I did that at New year cake but I washed a Quarter and I put it in foil just for safety reasons and my greedy big sister tore up the cake just to find the coin I was fuming mad and I never did that again, because she seen me do that and asked me why and I explained it, but she had a very bad year that year, served her right. She was a widow and was getting a few checks from her late husband so there was no need for her to do that. I didn't have nothing at the time, and for the record I still don't in ways with my situation, but it is a whole lot better in many ways.

Terri, Just added myself as a subscriber (finally). Greetings from Canada. I watch your videos every week. I plan to make this Brambreac loaf. Definitely a hearty treat, which will further connect me to my Irish heritage. May I make a suggestion? I've been baking since I was a child, and am used to 'greasing' the loaf pan, then lining it with wax paper, prior to adding the mixture. I found by clipping wooden clothes pins at the sides of the pan, (to hold the wax paper in place), would keep my mixture from spilling over the sides of the paper. Of course, remove the pins prior to putting in the oven. This is something I still do. 🫖 This will be a loaf to share over 'tea time'. K.

I am watching this in August, but your last words reminded me of something I had started to do years back and then I had stopped because of moving and work and busyness of life. This year, I will do a little bonfire and sit beside it and do prayer bundles of gratitude and put them in the fire. Samhain is a good time for reflection. it falls in nicely with the fall feasts in the Jewish calendar. lol. In the Jewish calendar, my ex is Jewish, September is the new year so the shofar is blown, then there is yom kippur which is time for atonement and repentance, then the feast of tabernacles where families camp for about a week outside in remembrance of the flight out of Egypt. Then bring in Samhain to remember and be grateful to those who have gone before you and to reflect on what you want to bring in and let go. love your channel.

Meat was forbidden during Lent and on Fridays. During Lent because it was a period of fasting leading to Easter. On Fridays because Christ was crucified on Friday and so we should give up something - maybe to be in solidarity??

in New Orleans and the surrounding area they make King Cakes during the Mardi Gra season. Inside the cake is a little plastic baby. The person who gets the baby is said to have good fortune for the year or get pregnant, and if pregnant will deliver a healthy baby. When I lived down there you had to put your order in for a cake at the local baker weeks in advance, if you want a fancy decorated one.
