Halloween Game Night: Creepy Tea Party
For this year’s Halloween post, I wanted to put together a dinner party that incorporated one of my favorite games, Betrayal At House On The Hill. Since the game is focused on exploring a (most likely haunted) house, I thought I would invite people over under the premise of a will […]
Trophy Cupcakes and Parties Book Launch
I attended the media event for the new Trophy Cupcakes and Parties book yesterday, and holy cow. I am blown away. I own my fair share of cookbooks, cupcake books, and party books, but this is my new go-to. First off, it’s written by the amazing Jennifer Shea. Not only […]
