Super Mini Masterchef with her swimming pool birthday cake
Mini Masterchefs in actionAs posted earlier, Lily turned 8 on July 13 but because her birthday falls in the school holidays we waited until she was back at school to have the party.
Lily loves cooking, and she received the Junior Masterchef recipe book, plus apron and cook's hat as presents. She has already made the family the best (and probably most fattening) chocolate mousse in the world!
Lily's party consisted of 10 friends plus family ring- ins having a cup cake bake off in the food technology room at O'Connor Catholic College. Whilst the cup cakes were cooking we went next door to the art room and created art works on mini canvasses, and then returned to ice and decorate the cup cakes. The goody bags were a box of cupcakes and the canvas.
The upside of Lily's party was that it was lots of fun for her and all of her guests. The down side was poor old Damian scrubbing muffin tins last night, and me sweeping up hundreds and thousands of hundreds and thousands off the floor today before mopping.

Lily - you're my new favourite cousin (don't tell the others), I love chocolate mousse. And I love the swimming pool cake - it's an old favourite in the WA household...

Please tell me the cup cake bake off didn't involve overweight "experts" ruining the self-esteem of the nine non-winners. Otherwise, it sounds excellent. How lucky are your kids to have such attentive and devoted parents. I'm with K8 on the swimming-pool birthday cake - best use of green jelly ever! Happy birthday, Lily.
(PS. If you're really good, next year I'll give you an extra "l" for your name! Oh, any mousse left?)
Happy Birthday Lilly. You don't know how not to have fun do you? Love Jake, Kelly, Lachie and Maisie
