Hosted a cocktail at our place last night. The idea behind it was to use up some of the spirits we’ve been acquiring… but after cleaning up this morning we have more than we started with, plus (yay!) heaps of fresh fruit for me to eat this week, plus foods like cakes that will be palmed off onto workmates this week :p

The spirits we provided (many other things arrived with our guests)

Plastic cocktail glasses. Awesome invention.

Cupcakes. Made using this recipe and covered in icing and balls. very very rich and sweet.

I only really got into the drinks late in the night, when Kat was in full flight making them, half the people had left and I relaxed a little.

I love plastic champagne flutes – perfect for Christmas parties with lots of people and so pretty to look at.

The idea was to decorate them, with permanent markers, but only the black worked well on the plastic. Oh well!
