Wimbledon for Two

Mr. Fizzy enjoys watching tennis and got his inner Fizzy on for Wimbledon this year.  He planned out this whole party for two.  He did the shopping and the set up.  I just baked the cake and decorated it the way he suggested.  Looks like some of my Fizziness is rubbing off.   


I bring you Wimbledon for Two, brought to you by Mr. Fizzy

Mr. Fizzy doesn't like coloured frosting. It has nothing to do with artificial colours or dyes. He just doesn't like the look. But tennis balls are yellow, so I should tint the frosting I told him.  He then informed me that tennis balls use to be white. Sure enough, they did.

The night before Wimbledon, Mr. Fizzy asked me where our ice cube trays were. After I showed him he proceeded to pour the orange juice in them. What are you doing? I inquired.  It's for our mimosas tomorrow. I think it will look good in the pictures. I had to smile.

After I got all Gordon Ramsey with my whip cream plating, the light bulb went off and Mr. Fizzy grabbed the whipped cream to top the mimosas.  He was pretty pleased with the look.

  2. WHA!? If this is what happens after a week off, what's going to break loose out that man's head when he retires?

    1. I know, right! He did point out I didn't smooth out the shirt he used as a backdrop. He's going to be impossible to work with if he gets into party planning ;) HA HA
