Twelve Grapes

After many years of peeling and seeding our twelve grapes in Spain, which are consumed one each on the twelve midnight strokes of the bells for luck, we have found the ideal solution . . . tins!  Apparently the hospitals here are busy just after the bells with people choking on the grapes!  Hope we don't choke on these ones!   

We'll be bringing in the new year here at home and joined by our good friend Philippa (blipper miralgato), who lives just outside of Barcelona and is coming to supper and to stay over.
