Camille and Jacquelyn Have Arrived (Photostory)

 Turns out Camille and Jacquelyn were headed to the bakery, Amore.  I think Camille gave us the impression that she was doing all the baking for the upcoming baby celebration for Kendra and Nate.  Not so.  She has enlisted the help of Penelope, owner of our town bakery.

The bakery has several rooms where Penelope meets with clients.  I will have to show you guys the main lobby one day, where the day to day sales take place.  We saw another tasting room when Rod and Danielle were sampling their wedding cake.  

Penelope starts to make some coffee, then decides against it.  If they want coffee, she will just get some from the main lobby.

"Hello Camille.  So nice to see you again."  (Penelope)
"Hello Penelope.  I brought my daughter, Jacquelyn with me this time."  (Camille)
"Well come on in, let me show you what I've done, so far.  Would you guys care for some coffee?"  (Penelope)

The ladies decide against coffee and make their way in while Penelope situates herself behind the table.

"I decided to show the two dessert trays together so we can decide on final presentation.  Here is the first one we put together."  (Penelope) 

"And here we have the second group of desserts we discussed." (Penelope)  

"Here we have the teddy bear cookies, the baby block tea cakes, and the double layer lemon cake.  Why don't you taste the teddy bear cookies."  (Penelope)

"Oh, they turned out so cute."  (Camille)

"They are cute."  (Jacquelyn)
"I was thinking of the shower having a Teddy Bear theme."  (Camille)
"I don't know, mom.  Sometimes you go a little overboard when you do theme parties."  (Jacquelyn)
"Well it was just a thought."  (Camille)

"Well, let's move on to the baby blocks."  (Penelope)

"I did a sample of four with the words baby spelled out.  Who would like to taste?"  (Penelope)
"I'll taste this one."  (Jacquelyn)

"So cute! I really like this idea."  (Jacquelyn)


"And finally we have the lemon cake you requested."  (Penelope)
"Mom, why so many different desserts?  How many people are you inviting?"  (Jacquelyn)
"I just want to have a nice variety, and you never know who will show up.  It's better to have too much than not enough."  (Camille)

The ladies eat their treats, then sit down to finalize a few details

"I'm happy with the choices, but I would like to have the whole cakes displayed together on one tray, and the slices on another.  I may need a third tray before it's all said and done."  (Camille)

"That will be just fine."  (Penelope)

"Looking at my calendar, I may have to pick those up the morning before the celebration."  (Camille)
"Mom, I can pick those up for you.  You don't have to do everything yourself."  (Jacquelyn)
Jacquelyn knows that her mom will probably not take her up on the offer. 


Camille has set the date for the celebration, but she hasn't told me yet.  Teddy bear cookies and a double layer cake will hit the Etsy store soon.  Baby blocks may make it there soon, too.

    1. Sergio - I am so glad you like that blocks. As I was making them and putting on the trim and the letters, I was wondering if I had lost my mind.

    1. Rossetti - Awwww, thanks! So glad you like it. I don't know why my dolls insist on so many parties. I am a little concerned that Camille is inviting more people than I was expecting. I hope she keeps it as an intimate affair.

    1. Marta - Thanks. Doing the bear cookies was fun. I have lots of bear treat ideas. We will see if Penelope adds any more to the menu. Camille's dress was made by Debbie of ChicBarbieDesigns. She has an Etsy store. I can't remember where I bought the jacket. I made Jacquelyn's dress. Her handbag is from a Fashion Royalty doll set.

    2. I believe the green jacket was part of the My Scene backstage play set. At least that's where I got mine. Camille wears it well.

  9. Camille is a hostess after my heart. I mean, I would LOVE to go to her parties. Yummy cakes and cookies. Oh, my my. Then again, I would start packing on the pounds. Sigh.

    Nice to pretend though.

    1. D7ana - I didn't let Camille see the first part of your comment. I was afraid she would add your name to the already growing list of guests.

  10. Absolutely yummy, if the food is anything to go by, this will be a very special baby party. Camille is so very organised - are you sure it is just a small event?

    1. Carrickters - She is planning a garden party, so as long as she keeps it there, it can't get too large. I will get worried if I see her renting out a larger space.

    Love it!

  14. Those baby blocks look delicious. I had some "petifores" at my baby shower. I didn't feel good but I had REALLY wanted them - AND - spaghetti salad. Let's just say things didn't come up very well and I haven't have any since.
