Out here in the desert, I crave anything green, lush and full of life. A bowl of Granny Smith apples, a watered houseplant, the new, sweet little finds above. The shoes are adorable. They go perfectly with denim or khaki, and especially a white blouse or a little lightweight white spring sweater.
And the cherries are the border for Baby Girl's First Birthday Celebration. We don't 'do' First Birthday Parties in this house. We DO say Thank You in the most grateful and fun manner possible to our friends and families who have supported us through a child's First Year. We throw a big party in honor of them, to toast their love and care, and to pat ourselves on the backs. We survived the year. All of us, together. Let's celebrate.
I am going to need to put together a menu for about 18-20 adults, plus offspring, for our gathering in a few weeks. I'll also bake a cake, and pull it out as a surprise toward the end so we can sing to the little one. Menu suggestions are welcome. We want to keep it light, fun, yummy, and memorable.
