Dinner Sunday 24 December - Stilton and nibbles


Did not actually have a proper dinner today, just had a bag of mixed salad leaves and then some Stilton Cheese with Ryvita crispbreads, some black olives, some celery and some sweet and salty roasted peanuts I made from some of the monkey nuts I bought.

The celery and olives are a nod to my Mother's traditional "relish tray" that appeared every Thanksgiving and Christmas and comprised celery, olives and radishes.

The sweet and salty peanuts were too tasty - a tablespoon of butter, a couple of tablespoons of sugar, melted together. Add the peanuts stir to coat them, then sprinkle with Chinese 5 Spice powder and salt. Far too tasty...
