Wedding planning must be fun…and a little crazy. I like your “life/blog balance” plan. . The only thing that comes to mind as a recent shocker was reading the ingredients on sugar-free rasberry jam. My roommate had some and I tried it (10 cals per tbsp) soo bland! Then I checked the ingredients…first ingredient was water. Water!! Followed by a long list of unknown additives. I compared it to my super tasty apple-cranberry butter from Trader Joe’s which is still only 20 cals per tbsp and the first ingredient is cranberry (naturally, right?) Its soo good, all-natural ingredients, and in the end a much better option than the fake stuff. So that’s my story Have a good weekend!!

The wedding countdown clock is such a great idea! What an exciting time!

I remember about 15 years ago when there were the first(?) reports of how bad movie theater popcorn was, and I was truly shocked back then…

60 grams of saturated fat! That is crazy. I admit, I’ll get it once and a while but will get a small and split it. I still don’t usually finish it.
But I definitely love popcorn as a snack. I will recommend to patients all the time.

That clock is too cute! Good luck with the wedding prep and bridal shower planning!

I’ll admit, I had a movie theater popcorn over the weekend! Yep, and it was deeeelicious. Nick and I go to the movies MAYBE twice a year, so I figure it won’t hurt. I do love popcorn, and normally I bring my own to the theater, but we had a GC so we needed to spend it I love Trader Joe’s bagged popcorn. There is something about it that is just amazing.

It sounds like you are really busy with weddings, and life in general. I wish you luck with all your planning. I am excited for that point in my life, although I know it’s a lot of work. I’m learning form everyone else!
