i do (again)

/


My friend Melodie (and her husband) decided to celebrate their anniversary by renewing their vows every 5 years.  While the sentimental part of that is awfully sweet, it's the do-over wedding that really appeals to me! Even though I loved my wedding day (didn't we all?), I think it would be fun to do something that reflected my current mood and style. Melodie and her husband, Matty- celebrated with a 'retro' wedding in Vegas and even hired a photographer to document the occasion. I'm inspired! (top photo: retro Vegas wedding, bottom photo: original wedding).

cuatro plates

/
The meals we had on my recent vacation were quite divine. And the presentation of the food was just as extraordinary. Curiosity got the best of me one evening, and I turned over the empty plate to see where it came from. To my surprise, it was CB2! I know these platters were part of the ensemble, though I couldn't find every piece I spotted on their website (probably means they were discontinued). The Cuatro plates are now officially on my wish list! Starting at $1.95 for the small size, I don't think I'd feel too guilty about the purchase.
