Surprise gift!

The milkman scared me witless by knocking on the door about 10:15pm last night. He had brought me a gift - a Dairy Diary. Packed with information, beautifully illustrated, and a tasty recipe for each week - including a rather strange one- Haggis Samosas!

What do you think - should I make some for the OFF Christmas Party? Where will I catch a Haggis at this time of year anyway - they will all be in hibernation or lockdown - but - Haggis Samosas?? Whatever next.

Re: Surprise gift!

ST I always used to buy one of those .
I guess due to the present situation they have been left with a stack of diaries and are giving them to 'the deserving'

And it's a 'no' to haggis anything I will stick with my vegetable samosas thanks.

Re: Surprise gift!

How lovely Tabby, I have an old Dairy Diary still and I find them to be very useful with the recipes as well.

Unfortunately I haven't had a milkman come round here for years.

He did, Carol. He delivers at night - is a Landscape Gardener by day! Goodness knows when he sleeps.

They are an endangered species, Mags. Don't know what I will do if/when mine retires.

The diaries are useful because they hold such a lot of information - apart from the recipes and usual diary stuff.

I've just noticed you can also buy them on Amazon, I didn't realise that!
