SPICE IT UP
We’ll give it to you straight: you have a future filled with cartoon-character parties, room-temp pizza and countless tantrums resulting from cake-highs and gift-envy. But birthday numero uno, when you emerge rumpled yet victorious from your first year of parenthood, is the perfect time to celebrate baby while kicking back and reconnecting with your adult buds (remember them?). Take-out Indian cuisine or packaged nibblies, yummy cocktails, and accessories like tissue garlands and sexy bling make it easy – and stylish. >
tip: Use saris as tablecloths, window drapes or cushion fabric.
