Week 10- Project 365

Oi.
I'm really behind on posting pictures. So here is March 1-March 7.

I really AM taking a picture every day, just this darn lack of internet is making it a little more difficult to post them!


Impromptu $4 centerpiece for one of the tables at the wedding shower I was planning for my sister!

More wedding shower decorations. I bought a kit to make these tissue paper balls, and then tried to replicate them with regular tissue paper. Didn't work out like I'd hope. But this pink one was pretty!

I bought the BEST game prizes ever. All from the lovely Crate&Barrel. There is a cutting board with a dish towel, a giant "Breakfast" cup and saucer with a variety of tea bags, and a cute green mug with a honey bee stick and a tin of blood orange tea!

Once I bought my dress for the Bridal shower, I realized I had gotten rid of all of my dress sandals in preparation for the move. T@rget fixed that pretty quickly though!

Red Velvet cake balls were one of the desserts on the menu for the shower. They turned out a little wonky because the chocolate wasn't very good quality. They were a big hit though!

*Sigh* I'm really happy with the general feel of the shower. I went for a pretty unique feel. More on that later. Here were our Georgetown cupcakes and homemade cake balls all on display.

Our next training {April-July} takes place in Canada. Alot of us aren't super pleased about having this road block in our travels {albeit a pretty cool road block} so I think the directors of the training are trying to bribe us into complacency. They sent these Kit-Kat esque candy bars called Coffee Crisp, which turned out to be pretty good. A little dry, but I think that's because they are supposed to be dipped into coffee.

Hence the name.

Great pics, Britt! The food looks scrumptious- especially the velvet cake balls! The decorations are pretty, cheerful, and fun! You are quite the little Martha Stewart- except you are young, and sweet, and don't have a mean bone in your body! A very good thing!
