It has been far too long since my last post, so now it is time to play
catch-up. I'll start off with a fete fit for a fairy princess (a three
year-old one at that) who wanted her birthday celebration to include her
favorite things: pink, fairies, butterflies, and little woodland
creatures. A shimmery pink and white invitation was sent out — inviting guests to
an enchanted forest — featuring a flying fairy, some polka-dotted
mushrooms and ethereal butterflies. The spirit of the theme was captured
in all the little details of the party, from the food to the
decorations, right down to the guest of honor.

Guests were served treats that included 'forest twigs' (thin pretzel
sticks), marshmallow mushrooms, pink pixie punch (lemonade with a little
food coloring), and of course, chocolate cupcakes with pink strawberry
frosting topped with a butterfly/flower stick.

Miniscule pink giftboxes were scattered about the garden for the kids to find. Inside of each box were 'fairy berries' (
Jelly Belly Raspberries and Blackberries) sealed shut with little owl stickers.
There were fairy wands to take home, a treat bag adorned with a custom sticker featuring the guest of honor as an enchanted woodland fairy, and picnic blankets in the shade to enjoy the wonderful puppet show put on by
Puppets Pizzazz.

Everything came out just right, and our little fairy princess definitely had an unforgettable day.
