When a beloved friend announced she's eloping in Italy to marry the man of her dreams, immediately I knew I wanted to make something special for her bridal luncheon. Such occasions make me so happy to be a reasonably creative person. I can purchase a decent pair of sheets, thread my needle and suddenly create a potential heirloom.
But the best part was the presentation. I think this shows my dedication to our friendship: admitting to a crowd of unknown women (and blog readers) that yes, I have been known to read a trashy novel...or forty. I was blushing while wrapping this, and I don't think it was the, ahem, balmy evening.
Mama, why is there a red light bulb?
- So Amanda can be cozy with her sweetheart.
Are these people being cozy?
- Oh. Um. Yes. Yes, they are.
'
It was worth it all to see her so pleased, so glowing, so in love. She puts the most passionate fictional heroine to shame.
Oh, that made me laugh and smile. The conversation with Miles, the wrapping paper, and the beautiful pillowcases. I am sure she was so pleased and thrilled to receive your touching gift. Well done Amy!
