This is the title of my latest publication. It's a ghost story set at the Christmas season. Stir-up Sunday is the traditional day for making Christmas puddings - always made when I was a child with 'three stirs and a wish' by each member of the family. My little sister, probably three at the time, asked for 'free stirs and a fink' which has gone down in family folklore.
The name comes from a bit of the church service for the day - Stir up, we beseech thee, O Lord, the wills of thy faithful people...
These days I really do have to stir myself to have a big baking session, but this link from the BBC food website shows that there's lots of inspiration for bakers, even if you don't fancy hours of pudding steaming.
