Birthday Recap (2014)

So my birthday was last week (woot) and I decided to celebrate by having family and friends over for an ice cream social. Well, I believe it goes without saying but I will say it anyway....I am a bit on the theatrical side, I am also obsessed with the fashion of the 1940's and 1950's. Needless to say this ice cream social would include a dress code. Running with this theme, I decided to play dress-up all week in celebration of my party--pictures below.


I also spent the week preparing  about 7 or 8 different flavors of ice cream for the party. The flavors I ended up with were:

  • Chocolate
  • Vanilla Bean
  • Strawberry (with strawberry chunks!)
  • Cookies and Creme
  • Orange Sherbet (coconut milk edition)
  • Berry Sorbet (strawberry, raspberry and blueberry to be exact...)
  • Chai (vegan--made with cashews. Not my fav)
Of course, in all the excitement I forgot to document the ice cream making journey, I did get this photo however...Yum.


The party was great, the ice cream was fab (you'll just have to take my word for it) and it was great spending time with family and friends. 


One of my sisters got me this book. As you can see it is already tabbed, I can't wait to get started on some new projects...

I love entertaining. Sometimes I do think I may have been born in the the wrong era. I would have made a glorious socialite. Anywho, I digress. Family, friends, fun, what more could you ask for? Ice cream maybe.... Til next time friends.
