In April, as we all struggled through the first of the year's Covid lockdowns, I jumped on the online quiz bandwagon with the first ever Guess The Vegetable From Nigel Slater's Description Of It Quiz. Competition for the Golden Beetroot was fierce, and lots of kind people gave donations to Dublin's Mater Hospital after taking part. 

Now it's December and we're in lockdown again – and at the end of a grim year, I thought what we all needed was one more Nigel Slater quiz – this time, a Christmas edition. So, sharpen your carrots, polish your pomegranates, and join me live on Twitter (@earlymodernjohn) at 7pm on Wednesday 23rd December to celebrate Nigel, Christmas, and sprouts – all in aid of the brilliant work done by Shelter to tackle homelessness. If you're taking part, and if you have fun, please consider making a donation (however small!) through this page.
