Acerules was a really big help, couldn't have done his party without her. Throwing formal parties are not all beer and skittles. The end is always good for me. I eat lots of leftovers, have a drink and put my feet up prior to cleaning up.<br /><br />Running on empty https://www.blogger.com/profile/05668554083864151638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647425979151417363.post-1779053001482974752017-09-04T19:31:40.440+10:002017-09-04T19:31:40.440+10:00Great placemats for a small price!

It would drive me batty to have to plan an event for such a long time in such detail. My granddaughter is getting married next year and she will plan most of her own wedding. We can feed her ideas and offer money but basically it will be up to her. The task seems monumental to me and I really don't have the tenacity to stick to the project. I admire your enjoyment of such a long term task. <br />The Au bush pictures show such a beautiful sky, even more so than the landscape. It seems so clear and pure.KEthical Politicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12169552208571703884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647425979151417363.post-37244472075355262232017-09-04T16:40:35.261+10:002017-09-04T16:40:35.261+10:00I've resisted the allure of learning how to ma...I've resisted the allure of learning how to make cocktails because I'd have to buy all the ingredients and I love them too much. <br />Once you start.....Fizzfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15690612271163437496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647425979151417363.post-57572967987880825702017-09-04T10:43:12.495+10:002017-09-04T10:43:12.495+10:00I enjoy watching my child having fun during it, th...I enjoy watching my child having fun during it, that's for sure.i enjoy watching them learn from each theme, and I enjoy the learning too. With such a long prep time for each one, there's plenty of time for research, craft work, etc. some things seem to stick in my mind, like helping my son make a Great Wall of China out of lamingtons (you can't use icing as mortar , we found out, has to be cream. ) Alsowhen making Cuban cocktails (hubby's 50 th) don't forget the sugar.

Probably no one else noticed, but that's just how I am, and I haven't changed. The only thing that makes me compromise is budget. <br /><br />On the other hand I dress very casually most of the time. I'm not OCD at all in everyday life. It's these special events I let loose on.
