August - Tapas Night

August 10th

I REMEMBERED

 

                                          

July - Chinese Night

July 27th

The one I was looking forward to the least as I am not a Chinese food fan but then I went and was surprised that I actually liked the food, so no more pre-judgements from me from now on. It was a great night - as are all our themed dinner nights. I was enjoying the night so much that again the photo taking was forgotten about so alas I have no photos to share of our Chinese themed dinner, hopefully I'll remember next month, till then................................

June - Cylinder Night

June 8th

Now this was a night with a difference, not that we are running out of countries already but that we wanted a change a pace, make ourselves think outside the box (or the cylinder as the case may be).

 

Noticing a theme here..............ha ha

Some very inventive ideas and some very simple ones.

 

 

And a wonderful cool evening finished off with a few beers around the open fire................ahhhhhhh

May - Mexican Night

May 11th

MY FAVOUTITE NIGHT SO FAR

As you can see from my statement above, I love Mexican food, although I must say that when you actually go to Mexico, the food tastes no where near as good as our westernised version. Tex Mex.

 

 

Now, not only was the food a talking point at this party but also the outfits. Everyone got in the spirit of things and tried to go a little MEXICAN. I brought my sombrero that I have had in my cupboard for the past 10 years just waiting for this day.

 

    

 

 

 

A great night was had by all .............................................

 

 

 

 

 

but some of us didn't quite make it to the end.

 

 



April - Seafood Night

April 13th

Now this has to go down as one of the best food night that we have had so far. The food was amazing, if there was a better word to use than amazing then I would use it.

We started out with, seafood chowder, seafood dip, prawns, scallops, prawn subs and crabs.

The best dish of the night

 

 



The kids filled up on prawn crackers
and left over easter eggs and spent
their energy in the gym.

 

As if that wasn't enough and we weren't all full already, the mains came out. There was fiduela,
asparagus bake and a fettuccini carbonara.

 

March - Cowboys & Indians

March 9th

Now I must admit this one was more about the dress up and the drinking than the food. It was my besties birthday party and was quite a lavish affair with dress up theme and a live band performing on the night.

 

This is not food I hear you say but as stated in previous statement this party was more about the outfits than the food and the above photos shows how good the outfits really were. We did have food but alas I was more interested in the costumes and the live band that was playing, so much so that I don't even remember what food was served.

 

 

 

 
 

 
 

Enjoying the campfire




Then all that was left to do was to dance the night away

February - Thai Night

February 23rd

I must say this was one of the largest displays of food that we have had so far. Asian food is not my favourite food so I was not looking forward to this theme as much as others but I was quite impressed by all the food on display and you must agree (by looking at the above photo) that the display was wonderfully Thai looking.

 

The food was amazing and varied and many dishes that I had not heard of before.
