The Accidental Hostess

Somehow you’ve been finagled into throwing a baby shower for your university BFF. Oh did we say finagled? We mean joyously volunteered, of course.

But between work and life, finding the time to cut the crust off cucumber sandwiches and make baby shower bingo cards has been majorly stressful. Save your sanity with delicate macarons by Kitchening With Carly. The delicious 12-piece assorted boxes include flavours like pistachio, espresso and chai; set them out with some tea and sit back as everyone oohs and ahhhs over footie pajamas.

You might get away with serving the Merlot in red plastic cups after all. —Maria Tallarico
