Holiday Drinks Party

Saturday 13 December 2008

At John and Lisa's, the Sainsburys (no relations). Unlike the supermarket, they made all their own food—and what food! While we nattered with lots of interesting people with interesting shoes, we nibbled on:
little cheese quiches and ham quiches
red pepper and white bean spreads to go on all sorts of crackers and baguettes
smoked salmon canapés topped with crème fraiche and capers
bits of smoked trout on curried tartlets
green olive tapenade
divine! fig and black olive tapenade
sushi rolls and multicolored wrap rolls
pickled mushrooms
succulent shrimp with chilli sauce (as they would say)
little puff pastries
cheese and anchovy savouries
and a fabulous spice cake.
Accompanied with (way too much) wine, it was a perfect evening. So thanks, and merry Christmas, Lisa and John!
