T'was a wild, cold and rainy November night. Hedgehogs roamed the garden, happy finally to have their own glutton feast, while birds dreamt of the tweet in store for them (you'll be pleased to hear they've discovered the bird table!!). As the ecological lights burned dimly (or oddly, depending on your POV), Gluttons huddled around the dining table, eager to tuck into the feast that awaited them:
Treat no. 1 - by Christine and Francis
Rouille dip
Greek feta xxx
Treat no. 2 - by Ana and Mark
Baba ganouche and pitta
Minestrone soup
Treat no. 3 - by Siobhan
Chicken cacciatore with mediterannean roast potatoes
Treat no. 4 - by Susie
A selection of fine wines and cheeses
Treat no. 5 - by Catherine and Fred
Panacotta, in raspberry coulis
Treat no. 6 -
Foul smelling hedgehog food (although according to Fred, not as smelly as Finnish rotten Fish) - a clear favourite of some small unsightly sluggy things
Treat no. 7
Sunflower seeds, hemp seeds and lots of fat balls - they can't get enough of them!!! :)

Other ideas
- periodically there will be meetings of the Glutton Club's sub-group, the Pudding Club, where there will be a general orgy of all things pudding-related;
- we could introduce the idea of having a "Food Hero" at each dinner. At each dinner one person (maybe the host) could tell us who is their food hero and why. This could be a food writer, chef or food or wine producer;
- we could have a "surprise tasting" at each dinner;
- we could organise outings such as wine tastings, visits to cheese makers, market gardeners, food markets, etc.
