Like most women, you’ve probably lost count of how many bridal and baby showers you’ve attended over the years. And if you’re part of the lucky club who is close to said bride/baby mama, you’ve probably had the honor of hosting and throwing their blessed celebration. Tired of spending a fortune? Rethink what it means to throw an elegant party. Schedule the event earlier in the day and make it clear on your invitations that it’s a tea party. Keep drinks to tea, coffee and water perked up with cucumber, lemon or other fruit garnishes, and go wild baking a bunch of simple cookies or cupcakes. For some simple recipes, head on over here.
Live well. Spend wisely.
