I love Pre de Provenance soaps. Don’t forget to check out the Bath and Beauty section of Etsy.com. I got some lime shaped soaps for my friend’s bachelorette party gift bag. I also got some personalized lipbalms for the gift bag too. All on etsy.

Right on, Toni. That makes me want to bust out this purple gown I’ve had forever. It’s in desperate need of some alterations, but it once made all the old biddies at the London Ritz blush!

The trick isn’t being comfortable in a gown when everyone else is in slacks, the trick is affording the gown in the first place. If I’m buying something fabulous, I’m going to wear it, no matter what everyone else is sporting.

Okay, I’ll wait to start the party…but I have no doubt there will be one.

No deal yet, Twistie…I wish, heh. We’re still putting together the last sample so we can hand it off to my agent. Then we’ll just wait and see…emphasis on the “wait.”

Ooh, I love that dress, too! I liked my dress, but ultimately I don’t think I got it quite right–I knew in my head what I wanted, but couldn’t find it in the stores at my miniscule budget and so settled for “pretty close.” These looks back are indeed a bittersweet pleasure.

And hooray for your book!

Happy soon-to-be anniversary, NtB! And congrats on a second book deal! That’s superfantastic and then some!

Trust me, though, if your bridesmaids had decisionitis, giving them another source to be indecisive about probably wouldn’t have helped.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have chocolate sushi to peruse. Mmmm…sushi. It’s probably a good thing they didn’t have this when I got married, because I would have wanted them and they might have gotten mixed up with the real thing Mr. Twistie’s mother brought and that could have been a bit of a problem. Still, I think I may get some just because awesome chocolate art is a good thing…and because I can’t afford those cakes I wrote about the other day. (pouts)
