Real Food Wedding

As you know my daughter, whose personal health transformation inspired this blog, and I are real food enthusiasts.  With her wedding reception less than one week away, we are taking special care to plan a selection of real food desserts.  This has been a real pinterest inspired DIY event.  We plan to make the desserts ourselves using treasured family heirloom recipes.  Our dessert table will feature a homemade trifle, replete with lemon curd that takes 30 minutes to stir - and made by my son Brett, Mimi's berry cobbler, Grandma Taylor's picnic cake, and chocolate cupcakes with vanilla butter cream frosting along with a bride and groom cake that will be decorated in a rose design. We are avoiding all pro-inflammatory seed oils and processed faux foods.  As we finalize our shopping list this morning I am trying not to be staggered by the amounts of butter and cream.  Julia Child would be proud.
