The best (BEST!) thing about the grazing board trend is that you can customize a party platter to virtually any theme. They're perfect for brunch or dessert, they can be tailored to a special holiday, and they're equally suited to matching a party palette (like this sunrise-themed grazing board) or …

pastel halloween party
Even though Halloween and trick-or-treating aren't really a big thing in New Zealand, last year, we decided not to let that stop us from our usual fabulous, group costume-y, October 31st festivities. Enter the most fabulous pastel Halloween party ever! Since we don't really do scary or gory …
a paris themed birthday party
It's no secret that Pi has loved Paris since she was teeny (remember her Madeline themed birthday party when she turned three? And the accompanying macaron and lolly station?). So it's only fitting that, as she enters the land of double digits, she'd have a Paris themed birthday party filled with …
DIY hanging golden snitches (harry potter party)
We started off the Harry Potter Birthday Month Fun with our Mini Honeydukes and are going to keep it going with these floating golden snitches. The Harry Potter party guests thought these were the coolest. And then the figured out they were chocolates that could be plucked down to eat. And …

make your own italian soda bar
Italian Sodas were pretty much our drink of the summer, and our Italian Soda affection has extended itself into the fall (literally, we have a lazy susan filled with syrups in our pantry as I type). As the holiday season approaches, the kids have been asking about adding Italian Sodas to our …
a mountain-y bear party
Since we call Bohden "bear," and since his little nursery has a (loose) mountain theme, we didn't look far for a First Birthday (slash Happy Adoption Day) party theme- mountains and woodland creatures and bears (oh my!). Bohden pretty much loves food (all food), but has a special place for …
