Christmas lunch




Darling New Kelly -who likes to cook - volunteered to cook Christmas lunch for our friends at Bobs house. It was fantatstic. Ten of us, Pete and Nel, Roland and Kat, Gracie and Tim, me and Bob, Ian and herself.

Oysters, vaccherin mont d'or; roasted goose and ditto guinea fowl with chanterelle and nut stuffing, roast pots, carrots and parsnips, sprouts with lardons and chestnuts, wilted endive with xieminz sauce and Medoc to drink with Chablis for the sissy's; orange and cardamon sorbet; cheese with Madeira; Christmas pudding with brandy butter, cream and Muscat; chestnut pavlova and cigars and brandy.

We are all old (ish) now, and circumspect -  but this was not a meal to stint on.
Bravo to Kelly xxxxx
