My temporarily Glaswegian cow orker became a vegetarian, not for ethical reasons, but because of her fear of mad cow, and horror at discovering some of the food safety practices there (which are probably equivalent to ours, they just don't let us see them).

We had a turkey which was enough for about 5 of us to have some and then a bit left over for a sandwich the next day. It was a free range organic one and very good I have to say. Didn't cost more than a dollar or so more per KG either, so well worth the effort.

Here's a close up of our ham which I baked with cloves and red currant jelly.

Heh... those nuts are what I gave to all of Minifob's teachers for Christmas this year. And shockingly, I made too much and just had to keep the leftovers for myself.

Martha Washington Candy
I've not had this in years. Rich, but good. Of course, like anything good , about $50 bucks worth of crap.
Ingredients: 2 pounds sifted confectioners' sugar 1 can sweetened condensed milk 2 cups flaked coconut 1 stick butter or margarine, melted (4 ounces) 3 cups chopped pecans Dipping Chocolate (below), melted Preparation: Mix all ingredients together, shape into balls, then chill until hard. Dip chilled balls in dipping chocolate and let cool. Store in airtight container in refrigerator. Dipping Chocolate Use melted chocolate almond bark or purchased dipping chocolate, or the mixture below 1 cake paraffin wax 12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips Melt wax and milk chocolate chips together in double boiler. Dip candy in mixture then cool. |
I was a bit doubtful about all that sugar, but can assure you all that the end result is entirely satisfactory (what a shame my husband doesn't like nuts .. ;))!
