The Queen’s Mandatory Christmas Pudding

Christmas may be a time for giving gag gifts in the royal family, but their Christmas dinner is taken quite seriously. Everyone included in the family is invited. The Queen even made arrangements for Doria Ragland, Meghan Markle’s mother, to come by this year. The family first has tea and sandwiches then retire for a change of clothes and then the formal dinner may begin. The dinner ceremony has strict seating rules and it is followed by Christmas pudding, as it is the tradition in the UK. Queen Elizabeth II has her own famous pudding recipe. She also makes sure there is enough for all the guests and the staff.
