Welcome January! This bill of fare for 8 people includes rice, salmon, boiled potatoes, beef fillet, cauliflower, turkey with jelly, celery, and plum pudding. A heart meal for the middle of winter.
Happy New Year!

Convivial Supper 
A darne? Plentiful salmon served on a napkin? It would be fun to have seen this table. Looking forward to more fun reading in 2019!
