While we are not Martha Stewart… our team had a lot of fun and we really had a GREAT time.. not to mention some GREAT EATS!!

Highlights included:

At the beginning there were a few dubious looks at the spread before us.

We then got in to the spirit of things tucking in and growing Ginger Snap tashes.

We tasted everything on offer and marked all dishes out of 10.

Tallying up the results there were a few cheeky comments!

Scotch eggs were very sausagey?!
