alex had a mid-quarter dinner party last night. i brought sangria and some cheese & crackers. alex had strawberry daiquiris and kumquat water. christine (from ips) came with margaritas. i met sanford, ena & sir philip, tahu, keira & her husband. erin (a former ir student), curtiss and danny, whom i'd previously met were there also. it was a fun group.
alex prepared the following menu of which was... as my 4 y/o nephew would say, yummy in my tummy! with a swirling hand gesture over his stomach.
jamaican jerk chicken
mango salsa--she also added papaya
black beans and rice with cilantro pesto
spicy pineapple slices--add vanilla ice cream (it's delish!)
stuffed peppers--she substituted portabello mushrooms for the octopus
jamaican hot pepper shrimp
when alex throws a party, she throws a party! still waiting for betty's recipe for her spicy bell pepper shrimp dish... i imagine that will take a while unless one of us physically watches her send it on her computer.
