So are you guys getting excited for Cinco de Mayo?? I have to admit that most years I’m not super into Cinco de Mayo. (I think it’s mostly because there are no margaritas in it for me.) Maybe also because I’m not Mexican. But this year I am helping to throw a Cinco de Mayo themed baby shower for my friend Sarah. Which might sound a little weird, but trust me, it’s going to be awesome. It had better be awesome. I have a lot to live up to. Sarah and some other friends threw me a baby shower a while back, and it was epic. Seriously the most fun I have ever had at a baby shower, and that’s not even counting the fact that I took home all the loot. It was a “Mustache Bash:” Mustaches on the plates, napkins, parfaits… Even the balloons had mustaches. The cupcake-toppers were mustache rings, how awesome is that?? Oh and don’t worry they even found a mustache-mold to make chocolate mustaches.
Mustache favors… And instead of playing lame baby shower games like what-melted-candy-bar-is-in-this-diaper, we played “Name that Stache.” You can tell I didn’t win this game. And that I apparently think every mustache ever belongs to Burt Reynolds. The best part was when we tattooed our fingers with tiny mustaches. Yes please! So yeah, like I said, it was pretty epic. Now the pressure’s on for me to throw the coolest Cinco de Mayo baby shower ever. I’m looking here for inspiration. Wish me luck! But real quick let’s talk about this pie. Classic Chicken Pot Pie is one of the most heavenly dishes ever created (am I right or am I right?) and genius Jenny over at Picky Palate came up with this Chicken Parmesan version. It’s delicious and it comes together really fast. What more could you ask for?
