Wedding Ceremony

Thanks so much to all you dear gals for helping me pick out my necklace and earrings. I ended up picking necklace #2 and earrings #13.

Now, onto the good stuff. I just saw this popping up on all sorts of blogs and had to play. This site (Wordle) takes whatever text you plug in and gives you a picture of the words. The larger words are those that show up most frequently. So, since I have wedding-on-the-brain I copied the wedding ceremony text from the Book of Common Prayer.



Isn't it beautiful? I love the reminder of which words show up most frequently.

Help me choose

Could you gals help me decide whether to wear any of these necklaces and/or earrings for the wedding? My dress has allover lace and looks somewhat vintage. I don't want the accessories to detract from the dress and am looking for something delicate and vintage-looking. So, do ya'll like any of these? Please vote in the comments.

I have finally lost it

It's been sooo long since I've last posted (August 2007!) that only a post so amazing would allow me to come back into the blogger universe. Well, I may have one.



These look like normal lemons, right? I seem to have an unlimited supply of them since my fiance's family has a whole tree of them in their backyard and I can't just let them fall to the ground unused. No, I must find uses for every single lemon from that tree. Well, a girl can only eat so much lemon curd and lemon meringue pie takes so long to make. So, I present to you, my dear faithful readers, my latest idea!


Lemon Underwear soup!


Word is that lemons have great whitening power and I just happen to have a small pile of whites that could use some whitening. So into the heated pot of water and fresh squeezed juice of about 15 lemons went my dingy whites.



And, just in case you doubt my lunacy, look closely at the above picture for the Jockey tag. Yeah, there is no hope for me now. I'm definitely going to regret having restarted this blog aren't I?
