weekend anyone?

i believe we are now at 65 days and counting. holy guacamole. i mean really now. everybody just hang on a second.

well, i do not have work today or tomorrow so i am dedicating myself to Getting Things Done.
in the spirit of such an endeavor, i have begun making lists. i do love a good list. i made sure to balance some things out (fun/no fun at all, time consuming/i could do it with my toes, running around/sitting and trying to 'focus'...etc...)
despite said list, my mind is still running in tight little circles. i am sitting on the couch, looking around at my menagerie of wedding related papers, notebooks (i also love a good note book), seating charts, and how-to-books, and it is increasingly difficult for me to focus on just one thing at a time rather than jump into creating This, and then wait, no, i was going to make a budget for This, oh hang on, wasn't i in the middle of mapping out the ceremony? no, i was definitely researching marriage licenses.

OK.

here's the game plan: i am going to get off here, because this is really not making any of my little To Do boxes fill up with check marks. sipping coffee and browsing my favorite blogs is not (despite common belief) getting me much of anywhere. but first, i WILL share one of my to do-s with you all. i need to pick a style of cake that i would like to show holly. on my cute list it says that i need to pick four pictures to show her. alright. let's pick.




he's cute huh?
so simple, but really just so classy.



now she is lovely. i really am not all about the traditional cake
but, i do like this very simplified version of it.



now hear me out. i adore the idea of maybe three little square fellows like this
all on different floating tiers. a little like this:



but not ugly. just artsy. theeen, have cupcakes around? i do like cupcakes.
cupcakes could potentially be scattered or on something like this:



just a thought.

ok, moving on with the cakers~

right along with that square idea is this



something about her makes me go 'ahhhh'

or she is nice also!



i appreciate the texture on it. makes it interesting without too much hoo-ha.



and i think we can conclude that i like the simple look. simple and artistic and i am a happy duck.

scott has tried to be a help in this decision but to little avail. i don't think he cares a whole whole lot about it, which is ok. when i do ask for a yes or no, he very kindly will let me know what he thinks :]

alright, i need to get cracking on other things on the list now. if anyone has an opinion or a favorite regarding the cakin matter, please speak up!

we're thinking red velvet cake by the by. not sure if that's all that relevant to the look of the outside, but i suppose it lets you know that we can't do marzipan smooth finishes. which is a-ok with me.

alright, alright! i'm leaving.
tschuss!
