Oh Yeah Baby!!!

 

Oh Yeah Baby! Shag Me!

I'm giddy with excitment (and a wee bit of alcohol) right now, so you'll have to forgive the whole Austin Powers thing.

I just booked my ticket to Florida. I did it online cause it was so much cheaper, and I probably only did it today because I was tipsy (yeah right, drunk!) but you only live once. And I thought, screw whatever comes up, I miss my baby!

So next month I'll be in Florida.

Hopefully Adam will have a little time off so we can go places together. We really wanna go to St Augustine because its so pretty there and maybe GA but we'll have to wait and see.

And perhaps i'll get to meet some jlanders who live in Florida. That'll be nice. If you'd like to meet, let me know!

After my boredom entry yesterday I've realised I need to make my own fun. One thing I really enjoy doing but don't get to do much anymore is baking. I just love it and I love getting creative with icing. So i'm taking up baking again.

One thing I left off my list of ideal jobs to try was being a baker. I'd love to create cakes for weddings and christenings and just any other special day.

One day I want to take a course in baking and icing cakes. I'd love to make my own wedding cake, that'll take a lot of practise. But these days, it could be possible.

I'm not sure, at the moment its quite popular to go with lots of little fairy cakes to serve to guests and just one small cake which you can cut or keep for your 1st anniversary.

I've already chosen what type of cake topper I want for Adam and I.  Traditionally people go with the bride and groom figures, but you can get really nice initial cake toppers. Just an intertwined A&S with crystal detailing.

Yes, I have been buying wedding magazines. Yes, I am looking forward to getting married, everything but the expense of it anyway.

Do you know people spend, on average at least £10,000 on their wedding. I couldn't believe it at first, but some venues charge up to £3,000 for the day and that doesn't include food or drink!

Everyone who comes to our wedding better like a buffet cause there's no way we could afford at sit-down, silver service wedding lunch. And they'd better bring their wallets if they wanna drink!

You know, i've gotten carried away. I blame the Rose on an empty stomach. But I didn't at all get drunk yesterday, so I should be allowed today!

Just wanted to let yall know that next month, i'll be getting busy. Goodbye Ann Summers and her Rabbit, hello Florida Sunshine and Florida Lovin'

Wonderful news!  I love St Augustine, I want to take my daughter there.  Who knows when we will get a chance to get there again.  If you were getting married in Florida, I'd offer to photograph the wedding for the cost of air only!  I MISS Florida that much. :-)  But, you are so right, weddings can be so costly.  I've seen many low budget weddings nad honestly those weddings seem to have the most relaxed brides.

Well, we all know it's HOT here in FL!! LOL It sure will be when you get to see Adam again anyway.... wink, wink.

I'd LOVE to meet you, Shermeen, but I'm still five hours away from Jacksonville area. If you do go to St. Augustine, maybe you can get Adam to drive over to my all-time favorite Florida beach which happens to be in St. Auggie - it's Anastasia State Park. We camp there all the time and go boogie-boarding there, etc. It ROCKS!!

I'm happy for you, kiddo!! Have fun,
Hugs,
:) Carol

I would LOVE to meet you! You have to go to St Auggie! I would have loved to have made my own cake. We ate ours a year later, and it was pretty good still. I love the idea od the initials on the cake rather then the regular old bride and groom!
