My mom has been calling me up lately just to let me know that there are only six Saturdays until Christmas. I think this is slightly cruel of her, and also, somehow, it still has not worked. I have not yet begun to shop. I don't even WANT to begin to shop. Argh.

I clicked to say I wanted to be invited to dinner, but seeing this comment just made my heart drop into my stomach. That's just not possible! I don't even want to buy Christmas presents this year. In fact, I have totally written off Mike's side of the family and told him he had to take care of it himself, but I can't help but worry about it. I don't want to worry about it. I worked my ass off for three Christmases making sure I got perfect gifts for each person and I never heard a single "tack" and never had any of it reciprocated so I need to not worry.

Whoops. That was a rant. Sorry!

Anyway, can I come to dinner?

ohhh scrumptious dinner!!! ~bluepoppy

I love PartyLite and Marie is an excellent consultant! Hope you enjoy the party and Marie's company! I know you will!

:) Next time you're invited, then! I am already sure that I will enjoy Marie's company, cuz she is a sweetheart! :)

"Loey Nelson—To Sir With Love"

Is that the song from the movie? If so, I love it.
And I love candles.
And I love smallish parties of women.
And I love yummy menu plans(even if I can't eat them)

The song is originally from the movie, but she does a lovely melting rendition of it that I adore. Wish you could be here!!

Wow! I'm already drooling for that dinner!! Yummy! I'm so excited about coming. I've been packing and re-packing my stuff trying to fit the most in and deciding what I really want to bring and what can stay behind. haha

Want to borrow some of my things?? ;-)

*drool*

*wipes up after you and gives you a stern look*

Ack! Swedish Father's Day is SUNDAY!?!?!? Thanks for the heads up! Not that G is aware of it but he'd find out after the fact and then I'd never hear the end of it.

I know!!! I just found out 2 days ago myself!! EEK!

Have a wonderful time with "the other" Marie. I'm sure it will be great.

Any chance you could save me a catalogue and maybe I can order stuff to go on your party "total"? They look like they have some beautiful stuff - and maybe something that looks good for my SIL for Christmas.

Absolutely! I've got 2 of each right now, so you're welcome to a set. :)

Speaking of dinner, here's the menu

I wanna come eat at your house! ;-)

Come on over! :)
