Garden Tea Party

This Garden Tea Party was for our daughters 8th birthday and she had so much fun. It was fun to decorate for it also. I used quilts and tea sets we had and made the party fancy for her.

We used dads ties for the boys and floppy hats and feather boas for the girls.

Food was easy. finger sandwiches, cakes and cookies served with fruit punch and flavored teas.

Here is the recipe for the pink cookies. I used Strawberry cake mix but you can use any flavor you like, try orange or lemon for a tart cookie. Easy Cake Mix Cookies 1 box flavored Cake Mix 1- 8 oz container Cool Whip 1 egg 1/3 cup powdered sugar Preheat oven to 350° In medium bowl, beat cool whip, egg and cake mix until well blended. Dough will be thick and sticky. Drop by teaspoonfuls into a bowl of powdered sugar and roll to coat. Place on wax paper lined cookie sheet and bake for 10- 12 minutes Enjoy! As you can see they were a hit with the guests.

Even boys can have fun at a Tea Party. Especially if it is for their sister.
