What could be better than celebrating the summer at the beach? Probably not much. But what do you do if you're not remotely close to a beach and you want to host a Retro Beach Sweet 16 Party for your niece? Well, like usual I had a plan.
And it involved bringing the surf inside.

How could I not have a Toy Story party this year? Well, the fact that when I planned the party I had no idea it was the year Toy Story 5 would be released, nor did I know Taylor Swift would have a song in the movie. I guess it was meant to be, right? I just knew it.

Well, here it is less than two weeks before Easter so I'm giving you plenty of time to get your Easter Dining Table ready. And this year it involves no bunnies, peeps or chicks. Other than the cute ones sitting around the table!
Easter Dining Table
It's December 1st and you know what that means...maybe you're decorating your tree or shopping all the sales. Or you're like me, you've already hosted four parties and you decorated your tree by the 1st of November and I'll be finishing up wrapping soon...when it is snowing! But let me tell you a little about my gift wrapping. I think I'm the only one in the world who did this.
Before I go into my wrapping story, let me share the most fun Grinch themed gingerbread decorating party I hosted for my family.
Grinch Themed Gingerbread Party!
Winnie the Pooh, Winnie the Pooh! Well let me just say I've had this little song playing out in my head for a few days. My grandson loves Winnie the Pooh, so having a Pooh themed dinner party was yet another reason to celebrate Disney!

Over the years, and I'm talking over the hill years, I didn't know any of the newest cartoons. But thanks to my two little loves, I am now familiar with them all. like all. or most all.
Anyway, my granddaughter wanted a Alice's Wonderland Bakery themed birthday party and who was I to say, I don't know how to make desserts for that party, could you pick another theme? Nope, I did what any Gigi would do. Come up with sweet treats for her party.

Yes, I know, it's been awhile since I've posted a party or two. But trust me, I've had a party or two or three or more. So I thought I should at least give you a little inspiration for your Christmas table.
Last year I decided on Christmas décor that was not the traditional red and green.
Black and White Themed Christmas!
I'm not sure how I found the time to write this blog post, I definitely have visions of sugarplums dancing in my head. Getting ready for another year.
And for the record, I decorate for Christmas on November 1st. I will not confirm nor deny that I may have started October 31st this year.
So, today I'm sharing a party from a couple years ago. Looking back, I think it's a favorite!
Peppermint Themed Christmas Party!
I told you I had another table...or two. So if I didn't tempt you enough with the leopard themed dessert table, take a look at the zebra table.
