Another Post About Food

Imagine that.

Me talking about food.

I just can't help myself. I love the stuff.

It was our turn to host our supper club this past weekend.

I usually tend to get a little carried away with themes, decorations, invitations, food... I drive Justin nuts when I get like this. I can think of/talk about nothing else. I probably should see someone about this...

This month was no exception, and I found myself tying little raffia ropes on the handles of my pitchers, just because it was cute (and theme-appropriate).

We had a luau. I made Margarita Beef with Orange Salsa and Chicken and Fruit Kabobs. We also had pineapple casserole, a broccoli salad and a pineapple-orange cake for dessert.

Everything was beyond delicious, and quite beautiful, if I do say so myself.

Justin built some yard games...Corn Hole and Hillbilly Golf, but I forgot to take pictures of them until it was dark! So sorry.

We also dressed up. I wore a coconut bra. No pictures of that either.

Well, I have a picture of that, but I am choosing not to share it.

It was definitely worth all the days of chopping up fruit and all the little cuts in my fingers, but I was so exhausted when it was over that I told Justin that the next time we have supper club I am making lasagna.

My little umbrella glass decorations!

Justin with his glass of punch (with Malibu pineapple rum)!Isn't my punch so beautiful! It tasted really good, too.
The Margarita Beef and Orange Salsa. Yum yum!
