Fifteen people come for Christmas dinner. Highlights include: the bubbles on arrival, Mark's beef and horseradish starter with homemade onion marmalade, and the apple & blackcurrant crumble with vanilla bean custard.
Quote of the evening: 'Kath - I don't want to make a scene, but something brown is dripping out of the oven and pooling onto our floor'. A small Emma 'I'm never having another dinner party again' tantrum ensued.
But the serenity is restored by dessert. And a large glass of Merlot.
