chipotle truffles and tulle

What do you do when your fiancee takes off for a bachelor weekend?
(you walk around with your veil on all day of course)

 Besides walking around wearing tulle I also tried to be 
productive and finish up some of the projects that is on the giant
to-do-list. Like a ring pillow with two little birdies.


I made a million truffles. 
Well maybe not a million but it felt like it.
And I only ate 6. 
I had to make sure that they taste good.

Chipotle, raspberry and peppermint.
They are scrumptious.

 Played around with makeup.
Took a ton of pictures of myself 
to see what it would look like.

Stressed out a bit.
Missed David.

Started cleaning the house.
Almost died or boredom.

Ate another chipotle truffle.


Forgot to feed Lisa on time.
She is such a drama queen.


12 days to go!
love ~tess

  5. How excited you must be!! You look gorgeous in your make-up; the truffles look amazing, and as for the "drama queen" - she looks a lot like Sammy does when he's sleeping.

I treasure your words and the fact that you are
taking the time to share them with me.
Please forgive me if I don't respond personally to you.
I always try but sometimes time just flies away!
