Ladies Who Lunch...Baby Shower

A spectacular garden setting for a baby shower, notice the espaliered apple tree against the house....STUNNING!

Luscious Lemon and Blueberry Tiramisu
The perfect dessert to top off the mediterranean inspired garden lunch


I guess we did not only celebrate a baby shower for a human, but there was this great robin outside the kitchen window keeping her eggs warm...new life celebration for all!



Perfect and beautiful garden setting for the party
