Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes & Easiest Cream Cheese Frosting EVER!
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Pillsbury™. The opinions and text are all mine. Fall is here. And we all know fall is synonymous with wonderful produce, like pumpkins. And in turn, you can't bake anything with pumpkins without pumpkin spice, right?! From cakes to lattes, to puddings and cupcakes (my favs!), this seasonal spice mix is everywhere!
How To Find The Best Vendors for Your Party
If you're in the events planning business or a party blogger like myself, you'll most certainly have a 'little black book' of precious vendors and party contacts. But if you're not in the “biz”. What then? How do you find reliable, efficient and amazing vendors, services and independent businesses to help you with your party planning or event?

A Charming Mickey & Minnie Inspired Party
This post is sponsored by the KEEP Collective but all opinions are my own. The magic surrounding the Mickey & Minnie Disney characters is undeniable. As a birthday theme it remains as popular today as it did back when I was a little girl, when I begged my mom to have a Mickey theme for my 9th birthday. This was the beginning of my love affair with all things Disney! Now that I'm all grown up and have a little girl of my own, I still find myself drawn to this charming party theme. And as party blogger, I witness first hand how much the characters are loved by kids and parents alike.

Our Quick & Easy End of Summer Patio Party
Summer is coming to an end, boo! And as much as I've been trying to resist the transition into Fall, school for my kiddos starts next week, so there's no denying it any longer. Double boo! But to lessen the blow, and make sure we still make the most of the hot days - yes, it's still 40 deg C in the shade 'round these parts; we celebrated last weekend with an end of summer patio party ! It's our way to enjoy the fine produce on offer at the end of season, and relax before the school routine finally kicks in.

It was national watermelon day on August 03rd (yeah, did you miss that too?!), but it's a party theme that will help us linger a little longer in the sun and reminds us that summer is not quite over yet! 😉
