Mrs. Cucumber Sandwich's Picture
Mrs. Cucumber Sandwich, Washington, DC/Cape May, NJ Age and Occupation: 28, School Counselor Fiance's Age and Occupation: 40, Collegiate Athletics Engagement Date: March 27, 2010 Wedding Date: October 2011 Venue: Congress Hall Hotel About Me: I am a school counselor who spends my day wrangling children and my nights attempting to be creative with wedding projects. My enthusiasm for each of these activities far surpasses my skill. Thank goodness Mr. Cucumber Sandwich is there to pick up the pieces and be the voice of reason about my DIY tries. I have an obsession with terrible romantic comedies (‘From Justin to Kelly’ anyone?, anyone?!?), competitive Scrabble play, and hot dogs. I could eat astronaut ice cream for every meal and can’t seem to resist buying more shoes. Our wedding is going to be a true hodge podge of semi-destination, tradition, Yuengling, New England charm, with just a dash of ‘Jersey Shore’ thrown in. It has been six years in the making and I can’t wait to marry my best friend.

Some Kind of Miracle

June 28th, 2011 @ 5:00 pm by Mrs. Cucumber Sandwich

I have the best aunts in the whole wide world. The other day I came home to this:

What could it be?!?

I didn’t think I’d ordered anything, but sometimes I have shopping amnesia. I opened the packages right there on the porch because I was A) too lazy to drag them inside, and B) too excited!

Lemon Puppy is so helpful. More than likely, though, she is trying to eat those packing peanuts and is going to get sick. Any ideas about what it could be?

After all the packing peanuts and bubble wrap were cleared, this is what I was left with:

MILK GLASS! I now have tons of milk glass to use for our centerpieces. All different sizes and shapes. I had casually mentioned to my favorite aunt (unless anyone else is reading and then you are my favorite) that I wanted to use milk glass, and she delivered!! All my ATL aunts went on a milk-glass scavenger hunt and sent me a miracle.

Like I said, I have the best aunts in the whole wide world!
