Red Stripe Crisis

[Blake]

I might get lynched for saying this.... but I'm not a big fan of beer, ergo I don't like Red Stripe...

Now I'll sit in the corner and drink some nice Appleton rum...

Sorry I've been slacking on the picture from the party. I'll get on that soon. Interesting about the differences about Red Stripe across the US though. I just assumed our problem was due to us being in Utah, land of ridiculous liquor laws until I tried Idaho and had no luck there either.

Maybe we need to start a Co-op. I'll send you red stripe, if you send me snake river brewing co and/or fat tire.

Flipadelphia - Good idea!

Okay, I finally have some picture of the decorations and food for the party:
Here is a flag:

We did a rasta flag too:

Lots of little flags:

The deserts, coconut cupcakes and a rum cake:

The rest of the food - jerk chicken, beef patties, etc.:

[Flipadelphia26]

Flipadelphia - For the jerk? After rubbing the chicken with lime, I marinaded in a mixture of Appleton rum, olive oil and Walkerswood Jerk Seasoning (the wet stuff, in the jar).

Thanks Sweetness! I had fun finding all the flags - especially the wee ones on the toothpicks that we stuck in the coconut cupcakes.

Looks like a great party! Love all the flags. I may copy a few of your ideas. That food made my mouth water.
