I am so excited to be hosting a baby shower for my husband's nephew and his wife's long awaited baby girl! We are all so happy and excited to welcome this precious sweetie.
Wednesday my grand-daughter and I baked cut-out sugar cookies with Paula Deen's cookie recipe. Some of the reviews stated it was difficult to roll out, and tended to crumble. I have to agree. Maybe refridgerating the dough overnight made it too cold. The taste of the cookies was worth the hassle. We decorated with home made powdered sugar glaze, white and pink of course!
We are serving Wild Rice-Chicken Salad, fruit, biscuits with jam and honey, and the cookies for dessert.
We have "Price is Right" and "Name that Kid" for games. I purchased 10-12 items at Target and the guests will guess the price. Closest guess without going over will win a small prize. For "Name that Kid" guests will have to name the children in famous families. Person who gets the most right will win a prize.
We served "Lemonade Punch" easily found at AllRecipes.com, contributed by "Baggy", and it went over very well. I used Yellow Tail merlot and frozen pink lemonade. My lemonade ice cubes didn't freeze hard enough, because there wasn't enough water in them. I tried freezing the concentrate in an ice cube tray, and it doesn't work. Comments included not too sweet, and there were requests for the recipe.
