An Old Favorite

I've been scanning and looking through some old film lately. I came across this old favorite of mine. It was taken on the north island of New Zealand literally seconds before it started to pour! Then I was shocked to realize that I took this image 19 years ago with an old point and shoot and slide film. I don't often feel that much older than the 16 year old who took this - where did the time go?

Angie's List

Ooh I'm a blogging fool today but I just had to pass this on. My sister has been telling me about Angie's list for about a year now. It's an online resource for just about any service you can think of - from handyman to babysitting agency. The only way to be a referred vendor is to have a past client refer you - ie I can't put myself on but one of my brides could. They even have a dog house and mediation area so you know who to avoid. Well they've just started a New York - Fairfield County area list and I'm really excited. I signed up the other day - I've been trying to find a drycleaner forever! Check them out at Angie's List

New Resource for Brides

I'm really excited about this new up and coming resource I came across called WeddingWire. It a place where couples and vendors can meet up. Couples can search for various wedding vendors and also see reviews on the vendors they're interested in. I'm always looking for new ways for my couples to reach me, but also easy ways for them to get the information they're looking for. I'll be adding a links section to the blog soon - but in the meantime check it out!

Getting to Know Spidey

Well I did something this past weekend that I never thought I'd do. I decorated a Spider Man cake. In the intrest of honesty - this was not something I planned to do - my mother was suppose to. My newphew Kai's 4th birthday was yesterday and my mom promised him she would make him a Spider Man cake and then she freaked out! I just happened to be at her house when she planned to do the icing. At first I was told to stay in the kitchen as moral support - then I was asked to mix a little icing color - next could you just start it for me. Then suddenly "It looks great your doing a great job - I'm going to go take a nap." What?! So long story short I know Spider Man really well now. I think I did a pretty knock-up good job for my first attempt too!
