Last week I introduced you to Heather, of Social Bites of Ruston, when we featured her vintage inspired wedding cake. Today I’m excited to share another one of Heather’s creations. This southern inspired dessert table, created for a wedding, is full of sweet goodies that will make your mouth water. Really, I’m craving pecan pie right about now!
From the walnut blondies to the dirt cake shots, key lime tarts and mini pecan pies – everything looks so delicious! I love how the white serving pedestals create a contrast to the vibrant backdrop and plates. This is one dessert bar where I could do some serious damage!
A very special thanks to Heather for the delightful dessert table inspiration and to Kelly Moore for the amazing photography. Be sure to check out more of Heather’s sweet creations on the Social Bites of Ruston website and blog.

For those of you who are basketball fans, you know that March Madness begins today. Yes, the next few weeks will be filled with more NCAA basketball than you can handle. We’re excited about the tournament, knowing that our team is playing. Fingers crossed that they make it out of the first round. I’ve got a little bet going with my husband and the winner gets a 30 min back rub. Sounds amazing to me, unless of course, I lose. Nevertheless, I’m quite pumped and thought these adorable basketball cookies were the perfect way to kick off March Madness.
I just love this cookie collection from
Eleni’s Cookies. From the basketballs to the jerseys down to the beer, popcorn and hot dogs, it is a basketball fan’s delight! What a treat for your guests as you watch the championship game. These would also be perfect for a basketball themed birthday party for a young child (minus the beer cookies, of course).
Good luck to all of the teams! And good luck to everyone who has entered our Plates & Napkins Giveaway. Remember, today is the last day to enter. We’ll announce our TWO winners tomorrow!
