Spanish Night v2

Can't even remember how this dinner party came about, I was inviting my Asian BF (actually Dr Rats) over for dinner and then, she asked her BF's sister and her fiancée, and then the fiancee's ex flatmates... so somehow we ended up with 7 people for dinner.

And as usual, I had no idea what to make, trying to come up with a menu plan while I was sitting @ a training course at work and finally decided on Paella at 4:00pm. With some bread, salad and mushrooms, should be decent.....and then Dr Rats turned up and questioned the amount of food I had available. thinking I will underfeed my guests! Wat?!? NEVER!

So trying to find something else to make at the very last minute, like 6:45pm (people were suppose to arrive 7ish....) What do I have in my cupboard?!? Seriously not going down to the shops again!

So found the very last 2 half (or less than half) packets of pasta, tinned mackerel, some olives, capers, chili, onion and garlic and ta-da. Everything in my cupboard pasta! It was probably the tastiest thing that night, since I kinda forgot to season the paella....oooops

So with some wines and cocktails, it was a rather nice
despite being rather last minute and unplanned :)
