And this Bug-tastic joint birthday by my talented friend Vivian Kerr from Kerr's Kreations is packed with amazing and inspiring ideas! I worked with Vivian for the bug inspired party printables, and am totally amazed by all the incredible details she incorporated into this fabulous party - from the food to the decor, the party activities and all in between.

Easter Kids Brunch & DIY Party Ideas
I styled this Easter Kids Brunch last year for Yum and Food for Kids Magazine. Their Easter issue is out and full of amazing ideas!!

It's a very simple and super colorful table that will wow your little bunnies!

Life doesn't get sweet that that for a party nerd like me! :)
Recipe | Easter Chocolate Mousse in Chocolate Egg Shells
I recently saw a recipe on Pinterest with a dessert served inside an egg shell. Well, my being to total chocoholic that I am, I thought to myself " wouldn't it be great if the shells were made of chocolate too?!

So I set off on a culinary experiment to make it as easy as possible to serve my chocolate mousse inside chocolate egg shells - BUT without the fuss of making the shells from scratch! ;)
