Christmas Treats

[sunny-dave]

My traditional (well I've done it for the last few years) thread about the foods that mean Christmas.

I'll start with ...

A really good pork pie for Boxing Day

Bendicks Bittermints - about the only chocolate I eat in a year - divinely sharp and minty

Stollen - the Aldi specially selected for preference

Liquorice Allsorts - a big tin please

Tangerines - not the ubiquitous loose skinned satsuma, but hard shiny orange balls full of piquant juice


I've got more ... but over to you first ... I may even get some ideas for my 'trip of doom' to Aldi this afternoon.

[Mamyalynne]

I'm coveting Shoota's nuts, I only have Quavers.

I thought I'd finished my Christmas shopping, but I really want some Twiglets now. Must have.

Shoota'll be quavering if Mamya gets his nuts!.....☺

[murraymints]

swap you some roses for your quavers !

[sunny-dave]

Swede !!! Swede !!!

Get thee behind me satan - Burns Night isn't for a month yet, but you've now got me salivating at the thought of haggis, neeps and tatties - talk about delayed gratification ...

[shoota]

Why G?
Are you a homophobe?




Boom, boom...

[shoota]

(The gremlins are back....)

[Mamyalynne]

You may have some Quavers MM.x

[sunny-dave]

M&S and Waitrose are a bit thin on the ground in my bit of Northants, DTC - I'd have to drive into the yummy mummy heartland of Market Harborough for that and my nerves aren't strong enough.

[shoota]

Mamy, there is no one I would rather share me nuts with than you...

Pecan?

Cashew?

[sunny-dave]

I've just eaten the teeniest (but loveliest) mince pie I've had this year ... from a box added as a freebie by Ocado to my booze order because they cocked something else up.

Something that tiny can't have any calories in it - just not possible. I may try another one .. or two ..
