This is the Sundy before Advent Sunday, and is traditionally the day on which, in the UK, Christmas puddings are made (for those in the USA - Christmas pudding is a rich fruit cake full of nuts, fruit and so on, eaten with cream or brandy butter on Christmas Day ). The 'stir up' refers to stirring the puddings (making a wish too) before cooking so that after cooking they have enough time to mature before Christmas day. The origin of 'stir up' actually comes from the Collect (a special prayer) for that particular Sunday in the Church of England Book of Common Prayer- the Sunday before Advent which says:- "Stir up we beseech thee, O Lord, the wills of thy faithful people, That they, plenteously beinging forth the fruit of good works, May of thee be plenteously rewarded. Through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen."
