Day Fifteen - Thursday Tapas

On Thursday Little Kim, The Spik and I held our first dinner party at home.  With tapas decided on for dinner and guest requirements allocated we set about deciding on what we would, quite literally, bring to the table.  After a quick calculation on the amount of money left in our kitty, at that stage it owed The Spik bucks, we decided on raiding the freezer for our portion.  We ended up making it all except for the hummus and bread, we vowed next time to make the hummus as well!

The Spik and Little Kim did an amazing job preparing dinner, I was stuck on N2 traffic (what’s new?) and dispatched to the store for a last minute purchase of greek yogurt for the tzatziki. I came home to the meat balls waiting in the microwave, bread ready to serve, The Spik on chicken and Little Kim on meatballs.   I quickly found myself a spot at the table and started on the sauces.

Our tapas dinner consisted of; beer battered chicken strips, meat balls, crudités, bread, tzatziki, hummus, potato wedges and a pink dipping sauce.  Mich also added to this with some yummy samosa’s which we started climbing into beforehand. 

Dinner was a great success with interesting conversations running around the table and of course the usual googling of some shady character that we heard a shady story about.  We wrapped up with dessert brought by Lily and Lolo – delicious tin roof ice cream and triple chocolate mousse that coupled with cupcakes from Mich, completed our dinner and our appetites for the evening!
