Chubby Diary: Marie Kit-Tea Party

This past weekend Beatrice and I were guests at Grammy Pammy's annual tea party! My family has the privilege of being invited to a lot of really cool events throughout the year, but Grammy Pammy's tea party is one of our very most favorite things we get to do!!!

Each year I think, "She can't possibly out do herself next time!"...and yet, each year, she totally does!!!

You can click here for a LAME recap of the first tea party...a Mini Mouse theme!

You can click here for a (slightly) better recap of the 2nd tea party...a Jessie (from Toy Story) theme!

And this year's theme was all about "Marie" from the Aristocats! :0) As always, Myke and Pam did such a WONDERFUL job seeing the theme all the way through the decorations. They installed a (used) chandelier they had purchased just for this event, they painted and recovered throw-away chairs from their neighbor, they made slip-covers for the wooden benches around the table, they hung lace curtains around a Parisian painting in their dining room, so it would appear as if their guests were looking out a window, and viewing the Eiffel Tower, and the list goes on and on! Everything was GORGEOUS!!!!

At the two prior tea parties, I had the honor of making some delicious and fun treats for the guests, but this year, my efforts were concentrated on "savory" over "sweet." :0) I made the ham and cheese palmiers...
