NEW YEAR 2024 BECKONS 🥂🍹🍰🍦🍩🍕🍟🍾🍨

[TallTrees]

Well here we go  again,  more 🥳 🎉 partying 🤪 

AND OUR THINKING GOVERNMENT NOW SAY WE CAN NOW  DRINK PINTS OF CHAMPAGNE 🍾  YIPPEE 

More eating 😋 just more. 

Clocks strike midnight 🔔 🛎 🎊 🔔 bells chime and the party 🥳 begins.

 I like to take a step back here...

 Easy food, a little juicy punch and quiet ⏲ 

 I have already made a beef stew with onions 🌰  Shallots leeks garlic with beef cut into small cubes and Kevin 🤣 mushrooms new potatoes 🥔 peas, corn 🌽  beef stock cooked for a very long time in my Le Crueset cast iron cooker. Hardly needs any energy. 

Freeze it into containers very economical.

Love sticky toffee pudding - prefer the variety made with bread and less dates:

Lovely Stew @TallTrees. I always follow my Mums recipe. Pretty much the same as yours.

Shin of beef and she used split peas to thicken. Delicious. Cooked gently for hours.

Wonderful food @Cleoriff

Very nice food @Mi-Amigo 

Marvellous KEVIN will be with us for celebrating NEW YEAR 😀 

[TallTrees]

Interesting bread base  @pgn 

Don't know that one but love bread pudding. 

I don't mind "no dates  less dates" because raisins sultanas would do the job too.

The split pea is fantastic thickens and is wholesome food. 😊
