Fiesta Friday {go green}

I inherited my love of celebrations from my mama.
We don't have even the tiniest bit of Irish in us,
but growing up she would always do something for St. Patrick's Day :)
Not your typical corned beef and cabbage though.
(We would have thrown fits and made pb&j if she tried to feed us that.)
No, I specifically remember one year she outdid herself with the green food coloring...
We had green beans, green mashed potatoes, and green MILK?!
Hahaha! It was pretty sick. But so fun!
This year I don't have a whole lot of green goodness planned.
If I were going to throw an Irish party tomorrow, however,
this is what it might look like...
There would (obviously) be a big fat rainbow layer cake.




I guess I would probably have to wallpaper my living room with yellow polka dots.





























Yep. Rainbow cupcakes too... in case there wasn't enough cake for you.











Aaaaaaaand cake pops.
I guess this party is just turning into one big excuse to have cake.
Story of my life...














Oh and Milo can invite his pug friends.
IF they come in costume :)
I'm sorry for this post guys.
I'm in a weird mood.
But I do love cake, and rainbows, and green mashed potatoes, and pugs, so...
Maybe it's not a mood.
Maybe I'm just weird?
Either way...
Happy St. Patty's & Happy Friday!

    1. I'm SURE we would!!! I'm known to make cupcakes for anything & everything as well... It's one of the reasons I had to start a business... So my husband and I wouldn't eat millions of cupcakes ;)
