The stage was all set for it, and it came in the form of a pudding that would have delighted all the gastronomes and epicures of history.

We called it the Newland-Tarlton pudding, because it was the joint creation of Mrs.Newland and Mrs.Tarlton.One wrote the poetry in it and the other set it to music.

We ate it so thoroughly that the plates looked as clean as new.

Cuninghame was there, dressed up for the first time in months, and the way that pudding disappeared behind his burly beard was suggestive of the magic of Kellar or Herrmann.
The recipe of this pudding is worthy of export to the United States, so here it is.

It really is a combination of two puddings, served together and eaten at the same time.
