Looks like the Kentucky Derby was May 5th but that’s no reason not to continue with the southern goodness of baking and eating Kentucky Derby themed food, but before we get to the great recipe today I thought I would share with you a few hats found on pinterest perfect for the Kentucky Derby.

· The Derby is frequently referred to as "The Run for the Roses" because a garland of red roses is awarded to the Kentucky Derby winner each year. The horse’s garland is made up of 554 roses, but you’ll only need a few to set the pace. Show off a dozen long-stemmed beauties in a treasured vase, or cut your roses short, in the French style, to keep a low profile among your food presentation. Carry out the theme with red napkins, candles, or paper party ware.
