[A habit he'd like to continue as far as asking for things goes but this feels a bit special. He gently taps at the recipe in the book.]

This is a Christmas plum pudding... It's a staple for the holidays back home. The last time I had partaken in it my brother and his wife were still alive. [He hesitates for just a moment debating just how much he wishes to open up about such things. But if he's managed it with both Lord Ferdinand and Lord Roland then he should, naturally, be free to do so with her. It's imperative even that she knows these sorts of things about him.] This will be my first Christmas in a decade not spent on my own. More importantly it would be my first one with you.

Pray forgive the selfishness of the request but it would mean a great deal to make this particular dish. I can't speak of its complexity having never made anything of the sort before but should it prove simple I would like to make something dear to your heart as well.
