Retro Dessert Bridal Shower

My newest neighbor, Ella, is hosting a retro themed bridal shower this weekend for some of her closest friends.  I feel honored that she asked me to make a few of the desserts for them to enjoy throughout the weekend.  After scouring Pinterest for ideas, I think I managed to come up with a few interesting recipes that didn’t require the use of Jello, Fruit Cocktail, or Cool Whip.

 Although all of these desserts look mouth-watering, they didn’t make the final cut.  I bet you’re wondering which ones did.

It looks like I’m going to be pretty busy in the kitchen over the next few days.  Luckily, I’m not too nervous about any of the recipes Ella picked.  Cross your fingers for me!

Faith, Hope, Love, & Luck
