Friday Fun!

Starting a few months ago, we have been celebrating Fridays at my office with a special treat! It's something different every week - hot chocolate, root beer floats, cupcakes. Today it was Chocolate Covered Strawberry S'Mores! There were delicious - the perfect mix of chocolate, strawberry and gooiness - not too mention that sweet pale pink color! The secret ingredient of these s'mores is Strawberry flavored marshmallows that I found at Target. The possibilities are endless ...

Monster Bash Favors

Sorting out photographs from my other Halloween party, a children's Monster Bash. Most have children in them which I'm hestiant to post. Will post some of food soon. These were the favors for each guest - most items came from Oriental Trading or Target. I love the glasses with the noses and furry eye brows!

Planning my next celebration ...

I'm working on invitations for my next party - stayed tune for a Mardi Gras dinner on February 16th!

Very belated posting of Halloween celebrations

As I posted about earlier, I celebrated Halloween with two very different celebrations. The first was a very elegant affair for friends nicknamed, Dracula's Ball. It was a multicourse dinner party at my place with guests of the vampire, dracula and even Twilight fan variety!

Invitation at left ordered from http://www.tinyprints.com/.

Decorations and festive napkins awaited all who dared enter!
