B-day bash cupcake

And with the beginning of the school year, here come the birthday party invites for baby girl.

Most moms are accommodating, having veggie dogs to BBQ, or asking ahead of time what they can do about the cake issue. I let them know that I'll send something for my little one to have for dessert, which is what happened today. And now I have 11 leftover vanilla cupcakes with chocolate coconut-cream icing. Make that 10. Err...9? I had to do some quality taste testing.

Labour Day: the unofficial last day of summer. The rain today is putting a damper on my blackberry picking plans. I hope it clears up by this afternoon. Although I will probably go even if it doesn't stop. After all, there is blackberry jam to be made!

Labour Day also marks the return to school tomorrow - or in my baby girl's case, the first day of school ever. It's very exciting for us, so of course we stocked up on new lunchbox containers. I can't wait to fill these up with delicious and fun lunches for her. Aren't they adorable?!
