Baby Shower for Jaime (and baby Breckin)

My daughter-in-law and her friends hosted a baby shower for their friend and co-worker, Jaime, last weekend and I provided some treats.

What a wonderful job they did... all the decorations were hand made by my daughter-in-law and her friends! So cute!

Treats provided by me, "English Rose Teas"... chocolate covered peanut butter balls, chocolate covered chocolate chip cookie dough balls (mmmm! thanks to my daughter-in-law for suggesting this one), mini cupcakes with vanilla and chocolate buttercream icing, millionaire bars, fondant covered cake-pop bonbons and lemon loaf cake.

 

Sangria to drink (not for the mommy to be though), lemonade and iced water with fresh fruit ice cubes made by the girls.

It all looks so lovely! I trust they had a great time. WELCOME to baby Breckin!!

Barbara's Birthday Tea

I was so happy to be asked by Heather to cater an afternoon tea at her home for Barbara's birthday a couple of weeks ago.  

Even though it kind of got off to a rocky start (car problems for me!), my son came to the rescue, picked me up with all my stuff, and got me to Heather's house, somewhat late, but thanks to all of  the "helpers" who came to the rescue and set everything up, eventually, everyone was able to have a scrumptious, calming, afternoon tea :)

Heather, you were a wonderful hostess to all the birthday guests, and so much help to me. I LOVED your kitchen (wish that I had it)... so much space to prepare the tea and set out all the goodies!

I hope that everyone had a good time and enjoyed all the treats. Heather, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to be a part of the celebrations.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BARBARA!
