And yes, a party should serve party food, I remember the days of the tin foil hedgehog; with cocktail sticks of fat wedges of pineapple and cheese. And thank you.

Little A had a great birthday, and it's still a little bittersweet for me, not as bad as it has been before, just the images rolling out in the background. As you say, it's a mixed bag of feeling.

I so hope that in time the trauma of Little A's birth will fade completely and you will be able to celebrate without lingering dark shadows. Her party however, sounds fabulous. And I love the fact you didn't bow to modern day pressure and served ice rings and chocolate fingers. That's party food as it should be!
