If there is any of this blueberry lemon cake left I will be right over to help you eat it! I imagine it's all gone by now though. Thanks for sharing your wisdom on hosting, I think we all need to remember that people aren't coming to see our stuff, they are coming to see us! Looks like you hosted a great Easter!

Oh my goodness, this sounds delicious!! I am loving the lemon blueberry thing lately, and have been making lemon blueberry muffins a wee bit too often as a result. This sounds like it's right up my alley! 😉

Wise words, my friend! I would entertain a lot more if I could implement some of your wisdom.

I used to get myself all hyped up to decorate and make sure every little detail was considered when I entertained. But then I realized that my guests were more comfortable and everyone seems to have more fun when things are a bit more casual (and especially when they have a less frazzled host). Your Easter brunch looks like it was a blast.
