Trans Siberian Orchestra, Live Full Concert, 2013, Las Vegas, NV

We did some digging and came up with this live concert footage shot in HD.  It's a 2013 concert that was performed by Trans Siberian Orchestra in Las Vegas, NV.  This is very rare so the moment we saw this available, we decided to get it on here while it's still up.  In this day and age of copyright violation fights everywhere, you never know how long something may be up.

  Now what really makes this video super special.  This is the last concert tour where the band is performing "The Lost Christmas Eve", show.  It is not the end of the band touring or discontinuing to exist.  Simply the end of this particular show.  (Let's hope they are coming out with a new album with more great content).  15 years Trans Siberian Orchestra has toured the country with an ever growing fan base and we can not wait to see what they come up with for next year's season.  (No they are not going away).

  The above show is 2 and a half hours long so plan on spending some time here to watch this.  It will surely be well worth your time.  Merry Christmas.

Recipe For Rare Gloucester Banbury Cake

Paula Deen Recipe (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Take a peck of fine flower, and halfe an ounce of large Mace, halfe an ounce of Nutmegs, and halfe an ounce of Cinnamon, your Cinnamon and Nutmegs must be sifted through a Searce, two pounds of Butter, halfe a score of Eggs, put out four of the whites of them, something above a pint of good Ale-yeast, beate your Eggs very well and straine them with your yeast, and a little warme water into your flowre, and stirre them together, then put your butter cold in little Lumpes:

The water you knead withall must be scalding hot, if you will make it good past, the which having done, lay the past to rise in a warme Cloth a quarter of an hour, or thereupon; Then put in ten pounds of Currans, and a little Muske and Ambergreece dissolved in Rosewater; your Currans must be made very dry, or else they will make your Cake heavy, strew as much Sugar finely beaten amongst the Currans, as you shall think the water hath taken away the sweetnesse from them;

 Break your past into little pieces, into a kimnell or such like thing, and lay a Layer of past broken into little pieces, and a Layer of Currans, untill your Currans are all put in, mingle the past and the Currans very well, but take heed of breaking the Currans, you must take out a piece of past after it hath risen in a warme cloth before you put in the currans to cover the top, and the bottom, you must roule the cover something thin, and the bottom likewise, and wet it with Rosewater, and close them at the bottom of the side, or the middle which you like best, prick the top and the sides with a small long Pin, when your Cake is ready to go into the Oven, cut it in the midst of the side round about with a knife an inch deep, if your Cake be of a peck of Meale, it must stand two hours in the Oven, your Oven must be as hot as for Manchet

The above recipe is very old and needs to be converted to more of a modern recipe.  It's fascinating to see how descriptions were once communicated.  This is from one of our rare old recipe book collections.

Make something extraordinary.
