The baby shower food table (aka. Callie's Cravings):
Menu
Asian Salad
Cheesy Whales (or gold fish, but we actually found whales!)
Chips and Dip
Fruit Salsa and Cinnamon/Sugar Pita Chips
Pickles
Cupcakes
Ice Creams Sundaes
Here are the toppings and the personalized labels I made for each thing! I felt like it pulled everything together!
Last but not least, beverages.
Just simple Ice Water on the left, then my sister found a great recipe on Pinterest for (what she called) Sparkling Pineapple Lemonade.
Then I found the straws on Pick Your Plum a great daily discount for fun crafty type things. I also got red and white to mix and match with the leftovers from the shower for my nieces 4th of July birthday!
Next up will be decor details!

& My food cravings!
Now, due to the gestational diabetes (which sucks!), I can't have a bunch of anything that I want, but I try to keep my cravings in check with moderation.
Then at the other end of the table was the true dessert!
And the stuff I really have to moderate!
The cupcakes all have a cute sparkly X's on them for Xavier!
My sister made these and they rocked!
In addition to the cupcakes, everyone was able to make their own ice cream sundae.
I am really bummed I never got a pic of the ice cream in the large pail because we kept it cold with frozen water balloons! It was sooo cute and worked pretty well!

Cute party. I really like the idea of frozen water balloons! I had gestational diabetes too & it was no fun not eating all the yummy things I wanted to eat :)
Very cute, what a fun idea! I would love for you to share this (and any other creations) at Pin It and Win It Wednesday @ www.cheapcraftymama.com!
What an adorable party, I love the theme!!
Fantastic! That’s a good menu. Thanks a lot for sharing such a helpful post. It is my daughter’s birthday next month and we are celebrating it in one of the home studios NYC. I am glad I came across this post. These dishes are great and I am sure kids will love it.
