Eye candy

I’ve been away from the blog for awhile.  I was completely taken out of commission when I got sick for roughly the fifth time since January.  That sucked.  Since then, I’ve been playing catch-up.  My wedding time right now needs to go toward addressing our save the dates which finally arrived this past weekend.  I [...]

For the love of chocolate

If I had attended this wedding with this amazing looking chocolate bar I’m pretty sure I would’ve thought I’d died and gone to heaven.

I don’t think this will be redone at our wedding but I can only hope to someday be in a room with so much delicious chocolate up for grabs. That’s the [...]

Any other ideas?

If I had a million dollars

…and/or oodles of craftiness, thriftiness, and hours upon hours to kill…

I would get me some of these. I think they are so cute. I would give them to all of my wedding guests with favors of quaint little herb pots. Wouldn’t that be nice?

Of course, I don’t have any of the aforementioned skills or [...]

Back to the future

I am officially back on our little island.  The trip home was so nice.  Sadly, though, it had to come to an end.  So here we are, back on the other side of the world for another year of adventure and wedding planning from afar but–one year from today–we will be back in Minnesota, getting [...]
