Happy Second Blog Day (Brunch) To Me!
[Or, well, my blog.]
You mean it’s not normal to use empty Trader Joe’s Almond Butter jars for silverware?
[It seemed fitting to me...]
Also fitting? A candle in the hummus. 
Although it was a tough call to decide whether the pimiento cheese actually deserved the candle-bearing honor…
Love Grown Granola sent me ALL five of their granolas for the celebration, and it made a nice partner for the Chobani Champions and my Smart Kitchen Vanilla Chai Yogurt.
And I finally used my monogrammed wine glasses.* [Only six years after I received them.]
*This was, of course, more out of necessity than desire. But, when lacking sufficient glassware, I say just serve all your drinks in wine glasses and call it “celebratory.” 
Gifts were given…
..and received!
Many friends came out celebrate, including Kath, Elizabeth, Rachel, and Liz.*
*Gentleman callers were also in attendance, but…….this picture was better. 
Alex was also there in salad [Er, I mean...spirit...]*
But that story–and the behind the scenes of Blog Day Brunch–will have to wait until another day.
Two year olds require very early bedtimes.

Congratulations again! Looks like fun and so pretty!
Congratulations! 2 years of wonderful post! I’m so proud of you!
Happy 2nd Birthday to my favorite blogger!
Have a blog b-day party is such a cool idea! I love that you had a yogurt-granola bar AND that you used PB jars as silverware holders. I may have to copy that idea.
Congrats Smart Kitchen Blog! Wish I could have been there…the set up looks like it was straight from a magazine!
congrats! it looks like a wonderful brunch party.
I had so much fun!!! Thank you again for the invite! (G-love much enjoyed the drinks, hehe)
I can’t wait for our next meet up!!!! I also can’t wait to eat those cookies… I’m trying to make myself wait until tomorrow afternoon when a cookie craving will inevitably hit
Happy Two’s to your blog!
looks beautiful!!!! so jealous
What a gorgeous brunch! Nicely done, Miss Smart! And happy blogiversary!
Wonderful … but are you making fun of my wine glasses? Just kidding – wish I had been there! xoxo
I wish you could have been here, too! I was channeling you all weekend…and I talked about how I’m constantly in awe of your ability to throw parties so effortlessly. I guess I just need more practice.
As for the glasses, the only reason I haven’t used them is I was so scared of breaking them! When my roommate picked one up yesterday I literally warned her that they were irreplacable and she better not drop it by accident…it’s the “good China syndrome”:never using your nice objects for fear of ruining them!
Congratulations, Sarah! Looks like a fun day! Love the candle in the hummus! The glasses are so cute!
So cute! Congrats on two years
What a fun celebration! Happy 2 years to The Smart Kitchen!!
Cheers to you on two great years! And the pictures (of the food AND the company) put a big grin on my face! For the record, the hummus candle is my fave.
Love it! Looks like a tasty and fun morning!
Happy Two Years!!! What a fun way to celebrate. The only thing missing…ME. =)
You were there in spirit, though! I actually did talk about both you AND Big Guy…we were discussing my Culinary Bucket List and I was telling everyone about our co-post with steak grilling.
I use old jam jars for everything, so a peanut butter jar seems natural to me
Looks like a lovely event, happy 2nd blog bday!
Congrats on 2 years!
Happy Blog Birthday! Congrats! Your party looks fabulous – everything is so colorful and pretty. And, of course, I’m sure all the food was delicious.
