This delightful Christmas Carol was sung by children in the west country of England. Its origin is unknown, but appeared in the 16th, century. It is thought that the lower- class children would serenade the rich folks. The song asks for a reward for the carolers, the figgy pudding. The pudding was made with figs, raisins, or other dried fruits. Much to our delight the Hersey's Kisses bell ringers are at it again this year..................... wait for it..................................... wait for it..................................... wait for it........................................ WHEW!! Love it!! We, like all of you, are hoping to see this virus be controlled. They say it isn't going away, but if we can get it under control and go back to our normal lives, it would be a blessing and our wish for the new year.
