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.

What's delicious with the beef stew is to bake a tearing sharing bread. Few cut chives for taste and topped with cheddar cheese then baked, served warm with the beef stew.

Dates can give the pudding a gritty texture, @TallTrees.

This recipe looks wonderful, although I am not so sure about using chopped dates in the actual sauce - see what you think:

That looks very edible @pgn 

With dates or without no problem 😊 

Medjool dates are very tasty the flavour is lovely. 

What a brilliant recipe doesn’t look that difficult and the croissants are light too and a ready base. 

Thanks for that.
