Oct 13 ~ What's a Wassail?

"Here we come a-wassailing among the leaves so green, here we come a-wandering so fair to be seen...."  While we associate this song with Christmas, it is actually a New Year's song, with the word wassail referring to the English toast for good health as opposed to the hot spiced drink know as wassail.  If you've ever wanted to make this holiday favorite, you can find all kinds of recipes at cdkitchen.com (which is also the source of the image in this post)
