Baby Shower Tea

I hosted a baby shower for a dear friend of mine over the weekend.  Here are some photos from our afternoon tea.
I found the recipe for the "Baby Blocks" on www.marthastewart.com.  I used a white cake recipe and divided the batter to tint half blue and half pink.
I served orange-cranberry scones and lemon-blueberry scones with a choice of strawberry, raspberry and blueberry jam.  After sampling the different jams, I let each guest chose which flavor they wanted from the dining room shelf to take home as a favor.

Mickey Birthday

We celebrated my two-year-old's birthday with a Mickey cake and homemade donuts.  It was a weekend of  indulgence.

Antique Wall Planter


This is an antique wall planter that I got from my Grandmother.  I added fruit and ivy to it and hung it in our foyer.  It definitely adds charm to our entryway.
