My friend Darcy and I threw a Storybook Themed Baby Shower today. I showed details of some lovely Goodnight Moon tea sandwiches I made (click the link for that recipe and photos) in my previous post but here I share the menu and the children’s books that went along with the food and decorations. All the guests, and even the family and friends who couldn’t attend provided their favorite children’s book to create a library for the baby to be. #babyshower #teaparty
