the party is over

Jeepers, all that fun in planning and now the party is over! My sister’s baby shower was a success and my other sister and I had fun in all the preparation. From picking up my sister Susan at the airport to going to a flower mart for the party to making my house ready for the bash… I had fun and sort of let down now that it is all over!

We had lox and bagels, crispy goat cheese salad, tomato basil stratta, scones, brioche cinammon rolls, fruit, pineapple bake, mimosas, bellinis, bloody marys, coffee, 2 kinds of cupcakes and whoopie pies.

I was crossing my fingers all week long for no rain- unfortunately it was miserable outside, but really warm inside which is far better that 90 degrees with the air con. on. Sorry for the poor photos, not only was there no sunshine, but my kitchen is not the best “non-flash” environment. And taking photos of food with a flash is quite frightening. I also did not take nearly enough photos- but I think that I was totally enjoying myself and felt no need to document the whole event.

Next up- Tizzy’s arrival!
I’m taking a blogging break, not sure when I will be back. Take care friends.
