Suckling pig

We got our first pig quote today

Mr Wongs - the bright yellow sign outside, opposite market city is selling suckling piggies at $43/kg. At 4-5 kgs per pig... With one week notice. We'll call on them 2 weeks prior to the day to lock in Mr Pig.

Next Q will be who is going to look after Mr Pig?

Wedding Dreams

I am a dreamer, and I remember them. Lately I've been dreaming about my wedding and the dreams are increasing in frequency and quirk factor.

The last dream i had. Uncle Jacob stood up to do a reading about the importances of promises and vows, which was very nice and all of a sudden the orchestra pit decided it was time to fine tune their instruments! Yeah My wedding was on a stage. HA! Lillian paused the ceremony and told them to stop making the racket. Most of the players obeyed except one naughty violin. Who got my death glare, and subsided.

The ceremony continued and then we got to a singing part?! (Yeah, singing.... WTF?) so while our guests sang the most folksy cheesy song about kissing and love (sounded like "From Big Things Little Things Grow") Steph gripped me by the elbows!

I'm nervous so I grip his and ask What's going on?!?. He tells me this is something we had planned and proceeds to pecks little kisses all over my face!

I dont mind kisses but infront of all the guests and an orchestra?! Frick!

Woke up and vowed to reduce coffee intake for the rest of the week.

Menu Holder Idea

Hrm... I need something to hold up the Table NamePlates and I'm thinking... (strokes chin)

Rather than buying something or something or something or something or something...

Make it :D

Using Salt Dough!

Ingredients
  • 1 cup Salt
  • 1 1/4 cups Warm water
  • 3 cups Flour
  1. Pour 1 cup salt into large bowl.
  2. Add 1 1/4 cups warm water, mix well.
  3. Add 3 cups flour, mix well some more.
  4. Knead into ball, seal in plastic bag and refrigerate overnight.
I think i would stick to something simple. Prehaps a egg shaped thing with a cut down the middle for the paper to sit in... Then I can personalise it with the date :)

Number Stamps

I need to borrow some number stamps to press into wet clay.

and i doubt ill use them again, so does anyone have some i can borrow?

Sunday: Makeup Trial

With Lu by my side as moral support (Kath on baby duties) I will be meeting Martha Mok from D'Makeupstation on Sunday.

>_< nervous as all buggery.
