AUBREEVISION - Observations from the far side of the dial

food A long Easter weekend draws to a close, and, as has been the trend the last few days, I'm stuffed to the gills. cricker81 whipped up a fabulous spread of turkey burgers, strawberry spinach salad and baked potatoes, which I sandwiched between a mimosa appetizer and a coffee chaser. Yesterday's highlight was an Easter brunch potluck with friends, including such dishes as baked apple French toast, hash brown casserole, lemon cream cheese squares and Charlene's pièce de resistance:
I spent the ensuing afternoon and evening barely able to pry my bloated body from the couch, where I Facebooked myself into a stupor. Hooray for laptops!
A couple of recent wedding purchases:
Water-soluble, biodegradable "table confetti" from Ecoparti
Pink light cubes from Magic Wand Weddings
Simpsons-themed bride and groom toasting flutes -- I love you, eBay!
I'm all about the online shopping. Also bought this organic cotton "baby kimono" (baby not included) and matching hat by Parade for my sister, who's due in June:
Wedding preparations continue despite much immigration-related uncertainty. Recent conversations with the US Consulate revealed that my interview for a fiancee Visa to enter the US and get married is as yet unscheduled, but that it will likely be scheduled for the end of May/beginning of June. Given that our wedding is June 9th, there's a very real chance that I won't make it into the country in time for the wedding. Things are also upheaved by the fact that I'm now mostly without employment and will soon be without lodging-- having intended to move to the US May 1st, I put in my notice at work and rented out my room. Life is never dull, that's for damn sure.
