We had a couple of family birthdays this week so decided to celebrate them over lunch today.
We tried out a Mexican Chicken recipe in the slow cooker and served "make your own burritos"
The recipe can be found here, it was delish!
Nibbles to start......
We set up a little drinks station with the choice of Pimms or White wine sangria.
The little mason jars and stand are from Kmart.
The stand was originally black but I sprayed it white for a fresher look.
It's always nice to set the table with pretty colours. I love the combination of navy and pink.
These placemats have been in the cupboard for years. It's so great to shop your own cupboards and find things you've forgotten about.
I forgot to take a photo of the food! So here is a photo from Goop where the recipe site.
Kids seating at the bar.
Dessert. 2 cakes for 2 birthday girls.
I made a Rocky Road Cheesecake and a Passionfruit Sponge cake. Yum!
I love a long Sunday lunch. It is the perfect end to the week.
How was your weekend?
This looks incredible - I always love seeing your table settings! We are having a 'yay its spring' party combined with 2 birthdays and the NRL grandfinal on Sunday, its going to be a busy one! I think I might duck to Kmart and buy one of those drink stands, I think they are such idea! x
ReplyDeleteBoth cakes look amazing - you are quite the baker! Do you have a recipe for the Rocky Road Cheesecake? x
