It is our daughters 18th birthday this Sunday. I was thinking about ordering cupcakes from the cupcake place on main street (even though she wont eat any of them) but when I spoke to them they said that someone has to be at the dorm to receive them. D has a tournament on campus this weekend and won't be around the dorms too much. Even if they deliver them early and D is there, she is in Russell, there is no AC and I am afraid they will melt (or just be inedible) by the time she gets back to the dorm. I was hoping that anyone might have suggestions of what I could do for her Birthday. Balloons? Help! please.

I ordered a cookie cake for my son last year through the dining services. I don't have the link, but I'm sure you can call them. It needed to be picked up at the Perkins Center though, so I cntacted his roomate to do that for me so it could be a surprise. it worked out well. The UD-gram looks like a good idea too. The cookie cake was only about $15.00 though, instead of $60.00.

let us know what you do! I have same issue in November. I love those cupcakes, but if she won't eat them, don't do it. They are very fragile also, piled high with icing.

I will definitely let you know. I just found out that D's best friend is planning something for her. Thank goodness for thoughtful friends... It has been an adjustment for her, like most, and I didn't want her to be sad on her 18th birthday. I am going to call her friend later, and if this friend's parents are on CC, let me just say you've raised a thoughtful wonderful girl! I will keep you posted, Pumpkin. Thanks all for your excellent suggestions.
