Rainforest Cafe' -- Opry Mills Mall -- Nashville, TN



Recently the family went for dessert to the Rainforest Cafe'. We chose to go there because the kids had remembered several years ago getting a Volcano Cake that had actual lit sparklers on it making the smoke like an erupting volcano.


They were not happy to find for safety reasons or expense that the sparklers had been replaced by a foil decoration, but the treats were enjoyed by all.





Some of our friends came along and we had fun playing tourist and snapping photos while inside.







Ms. Laura (now 2) had fun coloring and looking around at all the jungle decor. The apes did scare her a bit as she did not like their movements.



This is a fun outing for young, old or inbetween.

Alice in Wonderland CAKES



Birthdays are fast approaching our household. My birthday comes on May 1st, which has me thinking I should do a little research to find out what MAY DAY (a lost celebration tradition) used to be all about. I know there is something to do with a May Pole and girls in fancy dresses. -- Another blog will be coming soon.



But, down a rabbit hole I have travelled and need to get back on my path -- birthdays coming up. My name is Alice. I hope you have put my blog name, WonderlandShoppe together and also my many references over the past few months.



One of my favorite places to explore online is Flickr.com. I am also always looking to see how people invision Alice in Wonderland and stumbled upon some beautiful cakes. It is impressive to see the details put into each design.



As you can tell, I am one of those viewers of the food network and watch the cake competitions with the special themes. Also, another love is the Ace of Cakes show. The dialogue can get a bit repetitive, but watching the construction and strain the competitors go through is truly amazing. They are on another level of creativity that I have not quite obtained -- being 3D in their art.



Enjoy these sugary creations and know that you ARE NOT putting on calories -- at least I don't believe I am!!!
