Santa Claus is coming.. Has come ! to town

Totally locally Leek. Sunday supplement market was on today. lots of stalls and food and gifts. purchased some lovely artisan bread to go with the lobby which John made yesterday
He's looking to buy a basket, I love baskets! Rember those carved handle ones we used to take a cookery home from school?

@beryl Lobby consists of diced potatoes, diced beef, carrots, onions, beef stock, and other ingredients and seasonings. Lobby is an example of the traditional Staffordshire dishes eaten by poorly-paid potters who could not afford fresh food every day. It remains on the menus of local pubs and on locals' dinner tables today.

Perfectly dressed- even the gumboots and big red sack over his shoulder! So Lobby is a real dish!

That's interesting, had never heard of lobby before. Also didn't realise Santa shops too!
