A Christmas plate

Turkey and ham for four days in a row :-) That's what we do in Ireland; buy the biggest ham and turkey for dinner on Christmas day and continue eating until it's all gone. Delicious, but breaks you down eventually. It being Christmas there were plenty of deli type things in the fridge to make up a tasty supper plate. A good portion of smoked salmon with lemon juice is the main event here. A little pile of capers to sharpen it up. A selection of cheeses - normally we just have sharp cheddar in the fridge, but between gifts and pre-christmas treat shopping we had a good few to choose from. Some nice unpasteruised brie, a small piece of blue cheese and a little heap of crumbly Wensleydale with cranberries. A few gerkins for bite and a selection of crackers finished the whole lot off. We had a glass of Spanish red with this. A perfect break from the big dinners of the last few days.
