Love the shirt dress but I fear I'd fall right between the medium and the large. phooey. Pretty sure my waist is bigger than 28 inches.
Oh my gosh, I want a bowl of ganache right now. nom!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Because books.
I didn't drink! But I ... ate chocolate?
I need an intervention.
Kat, you are exactly like me. When I did Ben's Harry Potter party, I was up until 2 a.m. the night before, PAINTING HOUSE FLAGS on pillowcases to hang in the living room. I cut out about fifty white candles from poster board, colored the flame yellow, and hung them from the beams in our living room with fishing line, so it would look like they were floating.
Ben was five. All he wanted was a pair of glasses and a lightning bolt tattoo. I was insane.

I'm the bad party mom. My kids are lucky if there's a cake on the table and the laundry has been put away before the guests arrive.

Amy, our house is a mess. And I'm just poor enough to have considered a taco truck (there WILL be a bouncer though).
We will have yummy cupcakes though.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Lee, could you? I'd be ever so grateful.
Sure! I've even started already!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Jesus, what kind of kids do Noah and Grace hang out with?

Not that kind of bouncer, ita, a bouncy house.

Ganache is whipped and cupcakes are done. Ganache is my one true frosting.
I made 5 dozen cupcakes. They are all the chocolate CI ones, with the sour cream... the super dense crumb ones. Four dozen are frosted with buttercream.
The last dozen? I wanted to make a whipped whiskey frosting but Katie said no. So I did a center fill with buttercream and then frosted with ganache. yum yum yum.

You're going to have security onsite. I don't see what the issue is. God, significant others can be such party poopers.
Ganache is the only frosting I'll go face down in. It's just made to my specifications. However, I'm not going to look askance at the whiskey thing. Want to date me, Kat?
