Tea and Birthday – part 2

Posted on July 17, 2009 by Juliet Tiu

What’s a tea party without a description or pictures of food? This is what my husband orchestrated…

Delicious hors d'oeuvres

Thanks to All on the Road Catering…asparagus wrapped with prosciutto, empanadas with caramelized onions and goat cheese with tomatilla dipping sauce, shredded duck with cherry marmalade boats, wild mushroom strudel garnished with green onion, brie and caramelized apples crostini.

Yummy sandwiches

These were devoured: ham with brie and mango, turkey with guacamole, and roast beef sandwiches.

Birthday cake

Chocolate cake goes really well with raspberry flavored tea. Trust me.

We all had plenty to drink. Iced tea on tap: South Beach Peach, Fourth of July. Tried some “Triple Flip”… really gingery, orange flavored green tea. (I think it’s green tea. Can’t remember.) Even the kids had fun.

The husband did a great job… totally surprised. Friends, family, great food, great tea. This is what happens when you have your daughter and her friend dress you up at a tea shop for your birthday. 36… it doesn’t look too bad. We’ve come a long way.

Another candle on her cake (Webkinz birthday theme)

If I think about too much, it’s almost a heartache how fast Abby has grown. I’m so proud of her.

She’s putting last touches on her Webkinz themed cake for her Webkinz themed birthday party. It was a blast crafting ponchos for all the pets, decorating bags for game prizes, our own homemade Wheel of Wow, Gem Mining and W Shop.
