Mrs Beeton's Christmas at Bourne Hall Museum - Thursday 27th November 2pm-4pm

Join Mrs Beeton at Bourne Hall Museum as she takes everyone through planning a Christmas menu for a family party based on one of her Bills of Fare from the famous Book of Household Management, including recipes, etiquette, some Victorian Christmas traditions, and what to do with the leftovers!

Different dishes spark off different memories of various events in her life, so as the menu builds we find out a bit more about her and hear some juicy anecdotes from her life and career.

Roast turkey/goose, turkey soup, Christmas cake, plum pudding, mincemeat and mince pies will all feature, amongst others, as well as more detailed recipes for a couple of Christmas favourites with recipe cards to bring home, taken directly from the Book of Household Management.
