The birthday party

Today was our Mad Hatter Tea Party with nine well-mannered children in attendance. Much to my surprise, I kept this event under the $50 budget:

• Invitations made by hand from recycled materials: $0
• Pretzels, ice cream cones, ice cream, grapes, and two-bite cupcakes: $10
• Ziplocked garden seeds, kool-aid mix, and seaweed crackers for loot bags: $20
• Previously enjoyed Salvation Army tea cups and saucers: $15
• Clock craft from recycled materials: $0
• Borrowed costumes: $0

A good time was had by all.

I spent the $5 remainder on grocery store tulips. They are pink.
