The Summer Supper Club was held on Saturday night and it was a true Taste of the Carribean . We all tried to dress as tropical as possible and we are proud to say that this completes two full years of supper club. Jenni and Chad hosted the bash with a beautifully decorated table and the room was surrounded by pictures from the past two years.
On to the food. The cocktail of the evening was brought by Holly and Adam and was a Luau Coconut drink with Rum of course. Holly did a nice job of decorating the coconuts with our names. The joke of the evening was A-B-L-E and not A-B-E-L. Oh well, he is used to that Holly! They looked great.
The first appetizer was Plantain Chips with Warm Cilantro Dipping Sauce
Next up we had Carribean Meatballs. The dip that went with these was out of this world yummy.
One of my absolute favorite dishes of the evening was this salad.
Black-Eyes Pea and Pumpkin Salad
On to the main course, Jerk Chicken and Honey Glazed Sweet Potatoes. The Jerk Chicken had the most amazing flavor and it was grilled to perfection! It was pretty spicy stuff and I was proud of Abel for doing as well as he did with the spice in this dish. I would definitely make this chicken again.
After dinner we all changed and relaxed in the pool. We ate way too much and we needed to digest a little before dessert. 
Dessert was my dish! Rum Cake with Rum Raisin Ice Cream and Island Fruit.
The next Supper Club will be hosted at our house and that will begin our third year. Hard to believe that two years have gone by. On Sunday the kids got creative and opened their own food stand in Carmen's room. Free drinks and $2.99 gets you two menu choices. The kids have been playing very well together these last few weeks.
Today we tried to escape the heat and we went to the Indoor Trampoline Park with Sydney. The kids jumped for an hour. Gianni enjoys the dodge ball area and Carmen likes jumping into the foam pit. I think next time I might pay to jump. It looks like so much fun!
