I already called my dad and told him we'd be bringing a few of these yummies over (that way Sophie and I won't eat them all!).
Sounds Yummy.... About the duvet question...I actually bought the Anthro cream duvet cover and two shams... just like Sis's. I love the set, but I am afraid to use it. I know...wacky!! I have my duvet folded on a chair in our bedroom so kids can't get it dirty. :) I hope to "really" enjoy it....one day.
