We had our annual St. Patrick's Day meal on Saturday night. Robb and I spent the afternoon getting ready. We had 11 people around our table that evening and according to our instructions, they came hungry and prepared to take home some leftovers.
On the table...
Shepherds pie. According to my sil, made with real shepherds.
We don't scrimp!
and then desserts...
Buttermilk pie. This was delicious! and in this photo, raw. This still needed to be baked.
and Maddy's favorite, Blackberry crumble made with blackberries and apples.
Too bad she wasn't here! I guess we'll be making more around Easter time.
There were loads more dishes that we served but I didn't get pics of them. Colcannon, Tatties and Neeps, boiled cabbage, green beans with cracked pepper (trying out a recipe for the wedding!) and several others that I can't remember at the moment. We did open a couple cans of Haggis, heated it up and served too. That was actually better than I remembered it from a previous stint of real haggis! This didn't require as much salt... yummm
Anyway, everyone left by 8 and the dishes stayed on the counter until the next morning.
We were just too worn out.
Several meals so far have been made up of leftovers. And I'm ok with that!

Delicious food, family, and leftovers! Life does not get much better than that!
Everything seems to taste better the next day. Your dishes look excellent.
Leftovers! My favourite dish of all! I have a potato leek soup that we just love - leeks are highly underrated!
