Mr. Caterpillar’s mama has been working miracles while I sit on my floor sullenly eating old M&M’s. Just today she sent me pictures of her two newest creations — fans and bell shakers!
Earlier this month we (that’s really she — Mr. Caterpillar’s mama — but I’m going to pretend I helped) ordered some parasols for the wedding. I expect early September in Corralitos to be relatively warm, and I don’t want anyone to pass out during the ceremony. (Unless it’s from sheer awe. That would be okay.) Budgetary restrictions allow me to provide shelter only for the reception, so the parasols are going to be a sort of middleground. They’ll keep grandma from getting heat stroke, and I don’t have to find another $6,000 for an additional tent. But now, we have fans! Mr. Caterpillar’s mama painted the originals by hand. The dancing couple is absolutely beautiful.
And the bell shakers — roosters for Rooster Point, our venue, and owls because she knows I like owls. This could be the most rhythmic wedding ever.

About Me: I don't like Jeff Koons, mushy corn, or the unnecessary diacritical marks the New Yorker adds to words like cooperative. Also, I'm an obsessive compulsive when it comes to crafts. And not just the ordinary kind of obsessive compulsive who needs to have everything even and aligned. No. I've gilded the heads of pins to make sure they looked properly antique. Gilded them. Then coated them in german glass glitter. I am that crazy.
