And PS, those Maple Donuts were the best donuts I have ever had. Timmy Ho's doesn't stand a chance.

becky's bridal shower | the deets
20 ladies descended on Ann Arbor, Michigan on a very snowy Saturday to throw my little sister Becky a bridal shower. While Jen and I tackled the favours, games and prizes, my sister's soon-to-be mother-in-law and her sisters [and the very talented Beth who made all those cookies!] tackled the food and table decorations. And man are these ladies creative. Everything was themed and related to a time or place in Becky's and Nick's lives, such as the themed cookies that included Canadian Flags, Wedding rings, Buffalo Bills, Ohio and Eastern Michigan cookies, "Cleveland Brownies", Maryland Crab Cakes, Buffalo Wing Meatballs and Maple "Leaf" donuts. I was blown away. The food [and signature "Red, White & Blue" drinks] was amazing and a good time for all was had [with the exception of the Great Car Push that occurred out in the driveway trying to get everyone's car out of the snow]. Even Scout put on her Bridal Shower best [yep - that's a Loyal Luxe Bow Tie] Thank you ladies!

I found your blog about a month ago from Design Sponge, and am really enjoying it!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like the cutest wedding shower ever! I love all of the personal details, and you did a fantastic job with the pictures!
Also, the pictures you've posted of your family's fire tragedy are so poignant and moving. I'm very sorry about such a senseless loss. The things you've salvaged from the fire have all been very beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
This post made me so hungry!!
ReplyDeleteI like the little tidbits related to each food item.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun time! How funny that I just read a fiction book that was based in Ann Arbor. I had never heard of that town prior to to reading that book and here you post about going to a shower there! How funny is that!
