Fire, winter and wine

Sunday wasn't quite Michaelmas, but then nothing's perfect...

The best way to greet winter (at least as far as I'm concerned) is with roast goose, good friends and fine wine. In those terms, I think we succeeded.

Many thanks to Elaine (wisnolj), mister_jack and blooddoll3 (the spiced honey cake was a great finish to the meal!).
