Ruth -
I found a recipe for Guy Fawkes Day cake (maybe in The Joy of Cooking). Mr.
englishman himself had never heard of such a thing. He chalked it up to the
Americans always finding a reason to bake a cake. Being as he is very much
in sweets, I asked him what was he complaining about - at least it isn't
doused in cheese.

Hi Mike, I know about Boxing Day and Hogmany, I worked with two Englishmen
and a Scotsman for several years. I picked their brains about the
different traditions and holidays every chance I got. I like Guy Fawkes
day the best I think. I'm only 2 generations away from Scotland myself on
my Mom's side so these things really interest me. Ruth
