On Allie's actual birthday I baked her an actual birthday cake mess. It grew upward in the middle until birthday goo oozed out the top like an angry volcano. Sure that icing would correct my dastardly homemaking skills I whipped up a big batch of butter frosting. It didn't taste like butter, or frosting for that matter. So I decided a dash of color would fix everything. Allie's favorite color is Purple. That would have been a nice color. Lavender would have been pleasant as well. Instead I served up a putrid shade of gray. She blew out the candles like a trooper, we ate the cake and I was cranky the rest of the evening.
Today I tried to redeem myself.
China tea set and table covering borrowed from friends.
Ice cream, mini cupcakes and pop-it bead activity donated by grandmas.
Now that's a sweet party.
