i wanted to share this from margaret gould's blog, fountly, because of the bits about women helping other women. in my career, it's more often than not been women who have taught me the most, advocated for me and most of all, inspired me. (not to say there haven't been good men, because there have been, too.)

i'm throwing a baby shower in late july, so i'm starting to gather ideas here...

i served dragonfly petits fours at my wedding. they taste as delicious as they look.

bud vases at each place setting, which will double as favors.

i love bunting and this seems baby shower appropriate.
