The fifth Sunday before Christmas has been called "Stir-up Sunday". On this day, it is considered lucky to:
B) Have everyone in the family help to stir the Christmas pudding
The day got its name from a prayer-book verse used on that Sunday. The verse begins, "Stir up, we beseech..." It
was also considered the last day that cakes and puddings could be made and still be ready in time for Christmas. |
