19 Nov 2018
Back in the day in jolly old England this pie was made from leftover meat scraps i.e., minced meat and flavored with suet which is the fat around the kidneys from cows and sheep and and died fruits and nuts in the pantry. It was made into little hand pies or rectangles said to look the manger for the Christ child and so were also referred to as Christmas pies. References go back to the late 1600's and is supposed to be the kind of pie in the nursery rhyme "Little Jack Horner" Little Jack Horner Sat in the corner, Eating a Christmas pie; He put in his thumb, And pulled out a plum, And said ‘What a good boy am I.

WHEN I TELL PEOPLE I AM MENTALLY ILL, THEY EXPECT ME TO SUDDENLY GO CRAZY WITH A GUN OR A KNIFE. THE TRUTH IS: THERE ARE PLENTY OF PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO ARE NOT MENTALLY ILL AND THEY ENJOY KILLING PEOPLE. I AM THE MOST HUMAN AND NORMAL PERSON AMONG MY PEERS EVEN THOUGH I AM MENTALLY ILL. I AM ALSO HIGHLY EVOLVED AS A HUMAN BEING. I HAVE A PART TIME JOB, I HAVE LOVED ONES WHO CARE ABOUT ME, I TAKE MY MEDICATIONS DAILY AND SEE MY PSYCHIATRIST EVERY 2-3 MONTHS. I AM 42 YEARS OLD AND I HAVE HAD 2 MENTAL BREAKDOWNS IN THE PAST BUT I WAS NOT VIOLENT AT ALL. THE SYMPTOMS STARTED TO SHOW WHEN I WAS 19 YEARS OLD. I'VE BEEN IN AND OUT OF PSYCH UNITS MANY MANY TIMES WHEN I WAS YOUNGER. I DO NOT HAVE MANY FRIENDS BUT I HAVE FAMILY AND RELATVIES WHOM I CAN RELY ON FOR MORAL SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGEMENT. THIS IS MY PERSONAL STORY, THE END.
