Party Recap

Harper is bundle of energy with sparkling eyes and a head full of bouncing ginger curls. Those ringlets were the inspiration for the curlicue theme and polka dots seemed the perfect complement. Orange (with a nod to the ginger hair) and turquoise polka dots and swirls were found in everything from the invitations to the table ware and the food!

The food included meatball dots with a choice of three dipping sauces, melon (ball) dots, pinwheel appetizers, curly mac & cheese, tri-color rotini pasta salad, colorful veggie and sweet potato chips with dip. Multicolored twizzlers, candy orange slices, M&M's and great-grandmother's potato - peanut butter candy, and other homemade candies completed the sweet table. What beverage could have been more perfect than orange soda pop!
