What exactly are diaper cakes?  Well, it depends on the cake.  They're made mainly of diapers for the mom-to-be, but the "cake" can also be dressed with a number of other items.  Toiletries, clothing, washcloths, and toys among other things. At Diaper Cakewalk, the cakes are categorized by gender or theme and there are so many to choose from that it will … [Read more...]

Shari’s Berries sent me an adorable plush Easter bunny and 12 fancy strawberries.  I’ve had chocolate-covered strawberries before, … [Read more...]

As I child the Easter Bunny was my most anticipated visitor of the year, right after Santa Claus.  The fuzzy bunny always left a beautiful basket full of chocolate and other fun surprises. But strangely enough, the bunny always seemed to return with the same exact baskets year after year for me and my sister.  I guess back then, the Easter bunny wasn’t crafty enough to make personalized Easter baskets. Now he (or she?) has the help of the Happy Easter Store to put together great Easter … [Read more...]
