But so dreamy and so much fun and so blessid worth it.

We showered at my place, beneath the Maples.

Plan B: Grocery store tulips and roses mixed with anything we found blooming in our respective yards. Lois and Holly made those flowers beg for mercy as they whipped them into eleventh-hour masterpieces. I could not have imagined anything more beautiful. And thrifty!
The menu: A sandwich I invented, the Fun Salad, Donna's divine potato salad, and cheese/crackers/grapes. With Loey's rhubarb punch.
The sweet stuff.
(Just one hour prior, we were a gaggle of cackling chickens - sans heads.)
Sarah Jane, I have loved you since the day I met you. Thank you for requiring/insisting/demanding that I be your friend. I would have surely come to the same conclusion on my own, but some risks just aren't worth taking.
Also, thank you for marrying R. I really like him.
