Baby Shower: Tiff & Josh

I hosted a baby shower this past weekend for my cousin. The very first baby in the fam in a very long time. It was just a small family gathering but I used it to experiment with baby shower decor. I decided on a pink, black and white color combo. I made my very first diaper cake and strung bibs and onesies everywhere. Everything started out looking fancy but quickly turned tacky. Too many things strung from every which corner of the room. My aunt made some truly delectable decadent desserts and my mom bought some bun bo hue. She brought over tiramisu (my fave) and cheesecake. I was too lazy to take any pictures once people started arriving so you only get to see the decor and my food contributions. Throwing parties like this mos def puts a dent in the pocket. I spent nearly $300!


The tattered gift wrapping paper on my door was from a Christmas thing TWO years ago. YES. I am THAT lazy! You can't see but the bottom half has been torn off.

And sliders. I used ground pork since I don't eat beef. Thanks Miss HuHeHo and hubby for showing me how to make these. The bf loves 'em.
