What is that?
A diaper cake? I've never heard of it until Cathy made one for her friend's baby shower. When I first saw it from a distance I wanted to taste it, then I got closer and realized it was made of baby rearing items and no longer wanted to taste it.
Just thought I'd share. Have a good weekend.
Cathy's bridal shower was last weekend and I was recruited to take some photos. It was kind of difficult since I don't really do event photography and I'm not exactly well versed on the going ons of a bridal shower. But I did what I could and here's a few I took:
Listen to the cake. It is wise.
Bernice setup a nice party room in her building to have the shower in.
That's Bernice next to Cathy.
The rest of the guests.
Favor box. Filled with girly stuff. I was hoping it was going to be filled with beef jerky and knives.
Flowers (which Bernice arranged) hanging out with the cake.
Some of the food. Tasty.
Some of the treats. Tasty x 2.
Cathy and the guests had fun. I had fun too since all I did was eat and occasionally wave the camera around. More photos on Cathy's facebook.
One of the more ridiculous annual traditions in Chicago is to dye the Chicago River green for the St. Patrick's Day celebration. I've never seen it, so I decided to check it out. Honestly, it was kind of dumb.
People were lined up on all the bridges, waiting for the exciting moment.
Rather anticlimactically, a boat sped up the river dumping green dye into the water. And that was it.
The dye is normally used to check sewer discharges and is safe for the environment. Looks like a big toxic waste accident. I didn't wait around for it, but the whole river eventually turns bright green.
That's a sweet kayak.
