wedding favors
really, it's a commercial racket.

and guess who's going to have them anyway.

yes. me.

we're thinking about going the responsible route, and having tree saplings. we'd also have a basket at the door for people who didn't want to plant the trees themselves. erik and i would deal with it.

but now i'm thinking decor. those Hideous Plastic Bags in which the tree saplings arrive would ruin the wedding. they'd ruin, as dave barry would say, my Special Day. they'd ruin, as goingbridal would say, my Special Daaaaaaaaaaaay. being environmentally friendly is just so passé. and thus begins the Great Burlap Pouch Search.

i feel a little sick. i feel like a bride. i feel like a hoser.
but who cares about that - our place settings will look fantastic.
