I guess I should have sent this to Christina via email, but I can't find the email. So, I will put it here. I am just wondering if I am doing/did something wrong. I always tell what a wonderful job...

With all of the kitties that have been hanging lately, I thought we needed a little doggie action. (Sorry Mrs. S - I am not advocating dog and cat fights on WW.) ; ) Ladies, I do believe I may be...

Hi everyone, Whew, I have been so darn busy. I don't know what was worst carting the stuff to the venue or sorting through it now. Of course, I am biased; however, I will say my daughter was a...

Hi everyone, I received an email this morning from Andrene telling me they were rushing to the ER this a.m. Apparently, she is having some issues. If you are a praying person, please say a prayer or...

Hi everyone, I mean no disrespect, however, I am curious. Lately, instead of salt and pepper shakers, I see a lot of rings. It is almost as difficult to remember who is whom. Is this a new avatar...

As most of you know, I made custom drink stirrers for Cate's signature drink. Well, there was a bit of a problem. The glass they served the drink in was not large enough to accomodate a 7 inch straw....

Ahhh, do you hear that. That is the sound of retiring my glue gun. : ) The welcome bags were the last thing I did. Since many of Cate's guests are coming from OOT, she chose a "Taste of PA". It...

I don't know how many people know but, I ordered my gown in March and the darn store never ordered it. So, a month before Cate's wedding I had to find a dress. I am not easy to shop for. The bubbies...

Bridal Town now tells me that my dress has never been made and it will be made and sent to me by 7/23. The owner, Bill, has changed his story ten different times. After 7/23, he is in breach of...
