| RE: Upscale Baby Shower Food and Decoration Ideas |
|
Thanks for the Rubber Duck themes for a baby shower. Don't know if the person who asked will use your ideas but I will. I'm having a shower for a niece in July and now I can go ahead and get things together. I submitted an article on baby showers not long ago with one for my Daughter-in-law. It had some ideas for things I did to fill her a keepsake box and a little bonnet with a poem. Maybe it's still on there. Incidently, the bonnet idea was done for my niece who's now in her 30's. I LOVE keepsakes. ... View related article. |

| RE: Remembering Birthday Cards and Anniversaries |
|
After our sister organized a family birthday calender with birthdays 4 of us began to send on a regular basis. One thing I did was like the other reader was to buy cards ahead and address them. In order to remember what day it is to be sent by, I write the date where the stamp goes. That way I can just about hit right on the date to be delivered ... View related article. |

| RE: Where in the World Do I Even Start to Get Organized? |
|
In my opinion the key element to getting organized and STAYING ORGANIZED is DISCIPLINE!! When you use something --put it back. When you get up from the table--tackle the dishes--when you get out of bed --make it up. Then THINK of how GOOD it feels to walk into a clean kitchen or to come home to a freshly made bed and to know WHERE to find something when you need it!! A habit I've tried to enforce is to do 1-2 loads of laundry a day. Usually if I follow this routine I can keep things caught up. After all MOMS--- if YOU don't do it---WHO WILL??? ...

| RE: Restoring a Wedding Bouquet |
|
Why would you want to restore it? If this were my wedding bouquet I'd buy a clear glass or plastic box to put it in and keep it forever, or better still a small MEMORY BOX with little momento, napkin, etc from my wedding. In my glass covered memory box I have things from my Mom and Dad's 50th anniversary and even dried roses from their funerals.To change the origional bouquet would defeat the purpose ok keeping it. ...

| RE: Reception Ideas: Lunch for 100 People |
I catered a wedding for an acquaintence and set my price at $250.00. Here's what I served: 200 Ham Biscuits, 96 mini croissants with Tuna salad and chicken salad,2 LARGE fruit trays with extra refill 2 LARGE Vegetable trays with refill ranch dip,dill dip ,fruit dip and pineapple fruit dip,chocolte fondue and a few added things like mexican dip and tortillas, 2 crockpots of bbq meatballs and lg batch of sausage balls. Enough to fill an 8 foot table twice. Had to comparison shop for best prices and do all my cooking, cutting and make from scratch rather than buy ready made but I stayed within my budget. She was so pleased she paid me an extra $250. MY POINT: Receptions don't HAVE to cost a fortune if you watch your Ps and Qs.
