This recipe has been passed down through my moms family, I found it on the web and am passing it on... Although there are lots of different variations, I like this one the best as it is the closest to what my mother makes...
I like to substitute other types of fruit as well to spice it up... Also, I add other spices like Cloves and Cinnamon or Allspice

Merry Christmas Everyone!

PICEARY MAEN - WELSH CAKES
Printed from COOKS.COM

7 c. sifted flour
3 scant c. sugar (granulated)
3 eggs, beaten
2 tsp. salt
3 tsp. nutmeg
6 tsp. baking powder
1 lb. shortening - can be 1/2 lb. lard, 1/4 lb. butter and 1/4 lb. butter - or all
butter
1 lb. currants (10 oz box is ok)
3/4 c. milk

Combine flour, sugar, salt, nutmeg and baking powder. Cut in shortening as for pie dough. Add currants and mix. Add beaten eggs and milk and mix thoroughly.

Roll to 1/8 inch and cut out with small round cookie cutter. Fry on preheated electric griddle (325 or 350 degrees) on each side. (Do not grease griddle.) This makes a large batch - about 16 dozen - so if you wish you can cut the recipe in half, but they keep good.

The month started with Sioux City Iowa, "Riverssance" Festival... On the 6th and 7th... What a blast that was! On Saturday the place was packed! And everyone was having a great time with one last day of good weather before it got very cold on Sunday, but I was surpised there were still a lot of people coming in the gates all day! And all weekend the pub was jumping! Thanks to all that joined to sing with me! And a special thanks to those that helped me with my tip baskets and CD sales... Well the rain caught up with us at the end of the day and it made for scary driving on our way home to Cheyenne... But, Michael weathered the storm...

We then unpacked and packed again and we headed off to Aspen Colorado to attend concerts and visit the Windstar Foundation, in honer of the late John Denver...
If anyone knows me they know how much of a positive influence John's spirit and his music has been in my life, and in my music... since I was 13...
I was in heaven meeting other fans of his from around the world, and folks that carry on Johns work at the Windstar Foundation...
I had a prayer answered when I got the opportunity to sing at the last minute of the day at Windstar, being accompanied on percussion by a fellow named John Darling, Thanks John! And to talk with John Denver's Brother, Ron, afterward... He is a very nice person and let me share my story with him, and cry on his shoulder, of the loss I feel, and many people feel, with John Denver passing. 10 years October 12.... God rest his soul...

A couple of months ago Michael and I joined John Denver's Windstar, with a family membership and I can't wait to get more involved... You can visit their Web Page and join too! It isn't too late to do our part to save Mother Earth! Just go to my links and look for John Denvers Windstar!

This last weekend, we visited the Minnesota Renaissance Festival, and thanks to the folks at the Mill we had an impromptu concert on Sunday... That was a blast! Even though some of my biggest fans couldn't make it there, I was amazed how many did, on such a short notice and me without my phone! (as I forgot it in Cheyenne on the table). Michael counted just over 100 people, dancing, singing, and having fun. And it was a spectacular recharge for me, that I will carry me to the Sioux City, IA "Riverssance" show next weekend.
I ran into a lot of my listeners over the weekend which to me was like a grand present to be opened with our hugs... Thanks folks... You are the best!

I added the Locations and times of my performances on the Dates and calendar...

It looks like there will be fire works Sat Oct. 6 right after my last show!!!! I hope I see you there!

After tomorrows performance at the Cheyenne VA Medical Center, we start packing for our next trip.
First on the list is to MN, to visit friends, and go to the Minnesota Renaissance Festival... Sept. 29 & 30.
I am not sure if I will be performing as a guest performer that weekend yet, I am waiting to hear back from the owner of the show...

After that we head to the Sioux City, Iowa... Riverssance! for the weekend of Oct. 6 & 7... This will be Mistress Bawds first year at Riverssance and can't wait, I hear it is a great show!!!

I finished up at the Atlas theater last Sunday after 21 performances... The shows were a lot of fun as I have said before which made it hard to say so long... And imeadiatly caught a bad cold, with a temperature of 101! I am feeling much better now...
I hope to have footage of the show downloaded soon. Then you can see me in action! Thanks to Michael Jay Burke who spent every night taking pictures and video of my performances.

On another note... I am from Minnesota and yesterday I heard about the 35W bridge collapsing... I ask that everyone please keep the folks back home affected by this sad story in your prayers...

Thanks for listening...

WOW! What a great time I am having being one of the Olio’s for the Cheyenne Melodrama! (Helping out entertaining during intermission) Six days down and four more to go… if the rest of the performances are like last nights… I will have a hernia from laughing too hard! I really wish everyone could see it!

We have been performing two shows a night mostly, and the crowds keep filling the theater, and they are wonderful! They play along, sing, cheer, and have a great time!!!

I am so honored to be working with so many very talented people that make this show float like silk….
And we are having so much fun!
I have had so many fantastic helpers that come from the audience, bartenders, and cast while I sing, I laugh my head off so much it is hard to keep singing! The “Card Girls” and the “Can Can Girls” help me out the most… Thanks gals!!!

I won’t give it up just who in the cast tipped me off to the Sheriff of Cheyenne, and a Retired Army General & the President Elect of a very important organization here in Cheyenne were sitting in the audience! But, Boy I am happy they did! Those guys were great sports helping me out on the song “What Do You Do with a Drunken Sailor?” Complete with good singing voices, a dance, and a wiggle of the bum! OK, so I had to prompt them on that one…. But the crowd went WILD!!!!! THEIR CHEERS WERE DEAFENING!!! (And Michael Burke got it all on tape!) I loved it! (The sheriff was my Captain and the General my sailor…)
The Sheriff did say with a smile before he left the stage “he will hunt me down” for getting him up on the stage, and the General gave me a swat on the bum with my tambourine! And after the show their wives gave me great big hugs, and thanked me…

And the second show again! The men I picked out of the audience were great fun! One told a funny pirate joke as I was trying to tie on the scarf to make him look the part…(He really got into the part as well, and was great!) And the other fellow he tried to shake the tambourine in tempo but I could see he was having a bit of a time, so, mid song, I switched the characters and made him the Captain, and the fellow with the funny joke, the sailor. It was a good switch because as the Captain, he got into the part as well… And again, the crowd went crazy!!!

I love this town!!!!

I Just finished the first weekend of entertaining during intermission of the Melodrama... What a fun time had by all...
The theater is beautiful, the cast talented and charming, the audience very receptive and fun!
The people in Cheyenne, WY know how to put on a good show and have a great time!
