The beginning of winter brings forth a frosty chill, a symphony of whistling teapots, and an incredibly British reluctance to turn on the central heating. It also brings a slurry of social events, from Thanksgiving and Halloween to Christmas and New Year’s Eve.
Coincidentally, such gatherings also serve as the perfect excuse not to turn on the heating this winter, for the house will be warmed by a collection of bodies – chattering, drinking, eating and all-around merriment. If, like us, you’re the type to lend your humble homestead to these continuous gatherings over the holiday period, you’ll likely tire of coming up with uniquely delicious selections of hors d’oeuvres, nibbles and various edible party favours.
