A number of friends are getting together to celebrate HogsWatch (it's late - but the first date we could all manage)

Are there any traditional dishes other then sausageinnabun?

You need Nanny Ogg's cookbook!

Here is the recipe for Rincewind's Potoato cakes

Here are some options from the restaurant/old boots scene:

"Des curieux et des bouts" (odds and ends -- that leaves you rather a lot of latitude, I should think)

"Mousse de la Boue dans une Panier de la Pate de Chaussures" (Mud mousse in a basket of shoe pastry)

"Brodequin rôti Façon Ombres" (Soldier's boot done in the Shades fashion [In mud])

"Languette braise' (braised [boot] tongues)

"Sole d'une Bonne Femme servis dans un Coulis de Terre en I'Eau" (sole of good woman's's shoe in mud sauce)

"Spaghetti Carbonara" (ideally using shoelaces for the pasta)

"Prime aged beef" {old boots)

Soup (mud, snd a lot of onions)

Puddings (mud, caramelized)

Cafe de Terre ("genuine ground coffee" -- i.e., mud)

If you're giving presents, remember a dragon is for life and not just for Hogswatch.

Though I must add that it's most orfully tempting to suggest you simply create whatever dinner menu your heart desires, but stuff it all into sausage casings of various shapes and sizes.

Plum pudding sausages, for example, actually sound rather good. I've mimicked sausage casings with kitchen parchment and string with a fair degree of success...that would be perfect for plum pudding.

Don't forget Lord Vetinari's famed recipe for bread and water and the (in)famous Artery-Hardening Hogswatch Pie!
