[Rag Top Daze]

For many years (at least 50, probably more) my mother made blueberry steamed pudding for Thanksgiving and Christmas. She hasn't made it for at least 15 years, so I decided maybe it's time for me to learn to make it while my mother is still around to critique (she'll be 90 in February). I remember her making it in a large coffee can, but she gave me a mold, like the one Argie's Wife pictured in her post, when I was there for Thanksgiving. Thursday is the day that I will attempt to follow the recipe my mother wrote many many years ago that has a line that says "add lard 2/3 as big as an egg"...wish me luck
