Christmas 2014 @ Mita Cliff


it's everything christmas to me....
 Chicken broth & tortellini, winter veg tart tartin, glaxed ham, crunchy goose fat-basted potatoes, stuffed mushrooms, turkey, sprouts, stuffing, killer cranberry relish, ....have I forgotten anything?
 Then the dessert that has been the stuff of dreams and nightmares....Forest Floor... 8 page recipe, 11 components, 3 contestants, pressure test....the loser gets kicked off. Not really, but the stress was palpable :)
 And...the proud moment of unveiling..............................................VOILA!
Happy Holidays everyone, Christmas was a cracker as usual!!
The gift swap (never buy, raid your house for presents theme) was successful: the cane returned home, after an absence of 3 years. I hope to find the topless slippers for next year, and I'm pretty sure Andrea and Dorte will not be bringing the nipple tassles back in 2015. Just a prediction.

Thanks Mita and Cliff for hosting with plenty of love and abundance xx
