Details: For the location, we found a good spot of grass at Circle B Bar Reserve in Lakeland, Florida.
I bought some great pink and white fabrics and cut them into squares. I didn't have time to finish the edges, and I like how the sacks (that can be reused as bandanas!?) looked with raw edges. My mom helped me put together simple lunches for everyone - a sandwich, kettle chips, carrots, a box of clementines, and organic juice with bottled water.
The straws were leftovers from previous parties.
The pink napkins with white polka dots were a quick grab from Target.
We were running late getting the balloons blown up, which I had planned to string all around the picnic spot with some pink and white lanterns that ended up unused. The small bunch we finished ended up flying away.
The cake was vanilla, the recipe from Organic and Chic by Sarah Magid, which I always reference for baking. The icing was beautiful pink strawberry (I think I used this recipe). The cupcake liners were pink and white gingham, from the craft store. Yet another variation on a tiny pink cake for the tot.
Tova's headband is just strips of fabric braided together, idea from My Cakies.
It was a lovely day.
Xoxo, Kallie
