An event - Let's celebrate!!

Dear Friends,

This the first event I'm hosting and it's all about 'Celebration'.

About the event:

I chose this as the theme since I am a Gemini and will be celebrating my birthday soon! :D So let's all celebrate together!!

There are no hard and fast rules, you just need to follow the theme and get your creative juices flowing :)

On 21 June ,another blogger who is celebrating their birthday in June will be selected randomly from the entries and he/she can continue hosting this event as a part of their birthday celebration [only if they wish to host though...no compulsion] .So make sure you send me your zodiac sign along with your lovely entries.

Cakes: Since "celebration" is the theme, let it be a decorated cake...but then again plain cakes are whole heartedly welcome!! Let it be colourful & vibrant just like Gemini's are :D And oh yeah! I love Tiered cakes !! :)

Cookies:You can make cut out cookies, pressed cookies, dropped cookies,pizza cookies... anything at all!! Let it be colourful!! Make sure you dress them up for the occassion :)

Cocktails: Ahh.. Do I need to explainmore?? But if you prefer mocktails to cocktails ...you can definately send them in too!! Make it colourful and let it bust the heat around us!! :)


  • You can choose your flavours, shapes,colours etc...
  • Make sure you send in your entries latest by 21 June. The round up will be on the following weekend. You can send in as many entries as you want.
  • Please use the label and link your entry back to the event. You can use an archived recipe too but please re-post it with a link to the event.

While sending your entries make sure you send it along with the following details:

Subject: Let's Celebrate

Your Name :
Blog Name :
Blog Url :
Dish Name :
Dish Url :
Picture of the dish & Your zodiac sign

Non-bloggers kindly mail me your recipes and pictures and I shall include them in the round-up.
