Caribbean Night!

I don't think I told you guys that on Tuesday night I had a Caribbean themed dinner party. It was really nice to get a few people together on the night, as it was the last time I will see some of them before I go to university. Being themed, that meant that also had to dress in the theme (that wasn't too successful, to say the least)
The meal consisted of ackee and salt-fish for starters (even after soaking the salt-fish over night and boiling for 20 minutes, it was still rather salty!). Main was coconut rice and peas with curried goat (actually lamb, as I couldn't get hold of any goat) and finally to finish off mango muffins with cream. This was accompanied with Ting (a sweet grapefruit drink) and Jamaican punch.

Here are a few pictures from the night. . .


The ackee and salt-fish


Polly & Ali . . . Polly had been at college all day and came straight from there and had no time to put a themed outfit together, hence the 'thrown on' yellow hat, apparently 'very caribbean,' (if you say so!).


Me: Dress: (Primark)


Ali came as someone on holiday, this attire consisted of Ralph Lauren Jumper and polo shirt, A&F 3/4 shorts and a pair of Toms. Whereas Milly wanted to channel the cast of 'Cool Runnings' . . Reggae hat, sports beach themed tanks top, flip flops and short. . bless her! 


Jenny: Another holiday goer . . . Caftan/bikini look was embraced here.


The Ting!
