I made FH dinner, he walks in with a pizza for us. He puts it in the fridge, eats the dinner I made, says he'll heat the pizza and eat it tomorrow. I placed a delivery last week for a heart pizza to...

Stress doesn't even begin to explain how I'm feeling. FH was in an accident last night. I'm sooooo thankful that he walked out with not even a cut but his car is totaled and it is causing so much...

Ok so I have this extreme fear that I'm going to start my period on my wedding day...IN A WHITE DRESS. Does anyone else feel this way? I know when it usually comes and it's not close to my wedding...

I know there aren't jimmy johns everywhere but to the people that are familiar with Jimmy johns, would it be odd to have some platters catered to my wedding for a late night snack? They cut 8 inch...

I am wanting to put doilies around the invitations and wrap it in ribbon. Do I need to use cloth doilies for this? Hobby lobby only has the paper doilies for baking and the cloth ones are super...

Just got a check in the mail from FH's grandma for 2,000 with a note saying she wants to contribute to the wedding because she knows we're doing it on our own. I have no idea how to thank her. I am...

I know most people put their favors on the table setting but our favors need to be on a table as it is a snack/candy bar where the guests get a bag and fill it up. Where should I put the table? Do I...
