First, a rainbow cake. It is so wonderful!
Second, a balloon party. I'm still not sick of balloons. I buy them every time I go to the grocery store and they make me happy EVERY time. This could be pulled off for not too much money, it would just take some time to blow them all up.

ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! I love that cake! I posted about this mondrian-inspired cake recently; I think I'm going to have to play with non-flavor-offending food dyes soon...
ReplyDeleteHere is the original source on the rainbow cake - I agree - such a lovely colour palate.
