My friend Lisa…
had a baby shower for her sister-in law. Her and I brainstormed about shower themes and decided to go with a Pea in the Pod theme since the sex of the baby will be a surprise. When there was that terrific $5 off a $5 purchase at Hallmark she snagged some Pea in the Pod invitations for free…(If you are a follower of ChaChing on a Shoestring you would have known about that dealio 😉
Sometimes coming up with a theme makes it easier to plan the menu. And let’s be honest, most people are way more impressed with a themed party with Betty Crocker boxed poppy seed muffins when you name them Pop“pea” seed muffins to go along with your theme 🙂
The menu:

“Pea”nuts
Sugar Snap Peas
Fruit Tray with Fruit Dip (brick of cream cheese, small jar of marshmallow fluff and 1 tbl. of vanilla whipped together) that said “Have a “pea”ce of fruit.”
Lemon Pop”pea” seed Muffins
Adorable Cupcakes with a Fondant Peapod
Individual Oreo Pops in green for the favor which read: “So Hap“pea” you came.
For the tables a daisy with some peas in a vase made for perfectly simple decor.
