Menu for 4/7/14-4/13/14

Anyone who doesn't follow Annie's Eats regularly should definitely click over there and check out her daughter's adorable bunny birthday party. Annie always lays out an impressive spread for birthdays and this birthday was no exception. Not to mention the kiddo is absolutely adorable!

I've been spending some time catching up on the blogs I've gotten behind on lately. Annie's kids, Andrew and Caroline, are frequently the star of the show as is Kristin's cutie, Lincoln, on Iowa Girl Eats. I just eat it up, all the goofy pictures and funny stories. Kids are the best!



And speaking of kids I finally got to meet our neighbor's new addition. He was six weeks old on Friday when I finally walked over their shower gift.

The baby blanket I made for our neighbor's new baby.

I thought Bailey would be excited to see another little one, but I think she was too busy pretending to be shy to notice him until he started crying as we were on our way out the door.

There are lots of birthdays coming up in the next few weeks. Aaron's mom, my Nana, and Li'l P. I'll be quite busy with cakes and birthday dinners and cookies for awhile. If they all turn out well I hope to be sharing some of the recipes with you.
