Glad you've enjoyed Ruth's classes over the years too - she's such a lovely person as well as being very informative and generous with the food.

I still go occassionally but am more picky over which classes I attend. I do love how generous she is, though.

At least yours came at the start of the feast and not the end. That would have been heartbreak. Put me down as another one firmly in the camp of savoury over sweet. If I have the choice of 2 courses at a restaurant, I will usually go for starter and a main (no dessert).
