Tammy-I am going to make this at Christmas for an appetizer! It sounds soooo good! Could you tell me how many people this recipe would feed??

This may have already started in the States, but last night in Canada the new season of the Real Housewives of OC started ....I have a mild obsession with this show and I wanted to know if anyone else watched it?? Any thoughts on Gretchen, the new houswife?? Lori's husband have her a black American Express card..... This may sound dumb, but I miss Jo! She and Slade were such drama!!!! On a side note-I hope the NYC one doesn't come back-it was stupid! I don't think we have the Atlanta one up here, but that one sounds pretty juicy!!

So geeze, I deserve a pair of pants, or two, and maybe a new sweater to match. LOL-I do that sometimes too!!! I hide the tags in the garbage can so he doesn't know that I went shopping. My DH is definitely not controlling of our finances or anything, I just have a bad shopping habit and when I have to have my need for a fix, nothing or no one will stop me!!!

I love National Lampoon's Xmas Vacation (LMAO), Elf and A Christmas Carol.

Soooo sorry that you have this added stress on your plate! I know you mentioned your colors are blue & orange, but what if you did black dresses with the same flowers you originally panned for?? The colors in the flowers would pop against the black. (I personally don't think there's anything wrong with wearing black BM's dresses for a DW weddng!) Let us know what you decide!!

I am also not a fan of the pill!!! I was an absolute crazy person while I was on it. I have been off of all birth control since my DH have been together and have never felt better! Have you considered another form of BC?? The Depo shot, or an IUD maybe??

WOW! That dress is absolutely stunning!!! Unfortunately I don't need a dress, but I had to comment on it! I hope you find a good home for it!!

Sign: Cancer (June 20-July 22) Personality traits: Nurturing, cautious and emotional. Bridal pro: Your caring nature towards others will come in handy, especially when it comes to dealing with guests and your own bridal party. You’ll find yourself making sure that everybody is having a good time and that problems between members of your bridal party are at a standstill. Bridal con: Be wary of your sensitive side. You may find that small comments bother you. For example, if you overhear a bridesmaid’s remark on the style of her dress, try not to take it to heart—it’ll save you extra stress in the long run. THIS IS DEFINITELY ME!! SCARY!!! LOL.

Welcome to the forum! We got married at the Riu Palace in Cabo this past Oct. and we absolutely loved it! I would definitely recommend booking right away (there is no deposit required) just to ensure you get the date and time you'd like.

We invited approx. 40 people and 25 people ended up coming. That was the perfect number for us...not too big not too small!

Happy Thanksgiving ladies! Make sure you have lots of turkey, stuffing, pumpkin pie etc. for us Canadian girls!

Even though Canada already had their Thanksgiving, I wanted to say what I am thankful for! -My DH who amazes me everyday with the love he has for me -My amazing family! -our house and the life we have built/are building together -my health and the health of my loved ones -my job -tampons, makeup, mindless reality tv, toilet paper......

WELCOME!!! I think deciding on a date is key....once we decided on that we started to narrow down destinations. (That can get really overwhelming becuase of all the resorts out there) but this site is very helpful! ALso, make sure you contact a TA-they are a life saver!

Welcome back! I can't wait to see pix-Tahiti is a place I have always wanted to visit!

What you're experiencing does sound like eczema. I used to have it really bad on my inner arm, and it would flare up really bad in the winter months....plus the itchiness is unbearable!!! I would try using Prevex (a verrrrry moisturizing hand cream) and there's also a Spectro Eczema moisturizing lotion. What kind of body wash do you use?? Make sure it's something very gentle with hardly any perfums in it. Also something as simple as switching your laundry detergent can be helpful-I had to switch to the kind that have no added fragrances and specfically made for sensitive skin. It has made a world of a difference for me!! Good luck!!!

I have just about HAD IT with my skin--I have been breaking out uncontrollably for the last year or so....in my teens/early 20's i could count the number of zits I had. Now I literaally wakeup every morning with at least 2 or 3 more breakouts. I have tried (what seems to be) EVERYTHING!!! I really didn't like ProActive...i felt it didn't do anything for me...plus it bleached all my towels and my bedding! I use Retin-A for spot treatment and wash with Cetaphil. (I want to try something different as I feel that the Cetaphil isn't working anymore.) I also use MAC mineral makeup.... Now to my question--HAS ANYONE USED KIEHL'S? I am looking at these products in particular: Blue Herbal Gel Cleanser | Kiehl's Blue Herbal Moisturizer | Kiehl's I really don't care too much about cost right now (Within reason!!! Lol) I am going to see a derm in Dec. to see what he can suggest and maybe see about getting a low does of Accutane to help. HELLLLPPPP!!!!!

BTW-I have NOTHING against facial hair...just on Spencer, it makes me want to punch him! LOL

BARF BARF BARF!!! I cannot stand these 2!!! Just looking at Spencer makes my skin crawl.....yuck!!!! Nice facial hair, you creep! ...LOL...okay I'm done my rant! haha
