It's an urine analysis.

Their first sight seems so shy like they had a blind date. And look at the bouquets and the centerpieces and the ring shots. Don't you love those great place cards?<br /><span style="color:#33ccff;">Ich glaube das ist wohl einzigartigste Hochzeit überhaupt. Ihr "erster Blick" scheint so schüchtern, als hätten sie ein Blind Date. And schaut euch die Sträuße an und die Tischdeko und das Ringbild. Findet Ihr diese tollen Tischkärtchen nicht auch genial?</span><br /><br />Thanks to <a href="http://www.katemcelweephotography.com/">Kate</a> for the permission :-)<br /><br />So this is what <a href="http://katemcelweeblog.com/">the photographer</a> is telling from their wedding:<br />Kati and Steve planned a beautiful, earthy, intimate celebration for their closest family and friends and it was a treat watching all their loved ones come together to help out. We started the afternoon with the most awesome first look - they were so nervous and so stinkin’ cute! I loved that as a last minute thought Steve picked a daisy to give Kati; it later became part of his ceremony attire.<br />Each and every part of the day was so personal to them - here are some of my favorite things: Steve and his three brothers wearing matching brown Converse with their last name embroidered in the back; their friend Sarah reading from The Little Prince (love that book!); the reading theme spread throughout the celebration - I especially adored the place cards with cute quotes about love and life, and the books from their own bookcases forming the bottom of the centerpieces. [...] and finally the popcorn. Oh my, that popcorn. Kati’s parents have <a onclick="javascript:urchinTracker('/outbound/www.popcorncountry.com/?ref=/category/weddings/');" href="http://www.popcorncountry.com/" target="_blank">a popcorn store</a> in Arizona and it is hands down the best freakin’ corn I’ve ever tasted in my life. Wow.<br /><br />And now enjoy this wonderful wedding! <span style="color:#33ccff;">Und jetzt genießt die wunderbare Hochzeit!</span><br /><br /><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 404px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 600px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://katemcelweeblog.com/wp-content/gallery/kati-steve-wedding/kati-steve-003.jpg" border="0" /> <img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 763px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 496px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://katemcelweeblog.com/wp-content/gallery/kati-steve-wedding/kati-steve-007.jpg" border="0" /> <img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 748px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 479px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://katemcelweeblog.com/wp-content/gallery/kati-steve-wedding/kati-steve-009.jpg" border="0" /> <img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 404px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 600px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://katemcelweeblog.com/wp-content/gallery/kati-steve-wedding/kati-steve-013.jpg" border="0" /> <img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 753px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 486px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://katemcelweeblog.com/wp-content/gallery/kati-steve-wedding/kati-steve-018.jpg" border="0" /> <img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 404px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 600px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://katemcelweeblog.com/wp-content/gallery/kati-steve-wedding/kati-steve-019.jpg" border="0" /> <img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 752px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 486px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://katemcelweeblog.com/wp-content/gallery/kati-steve-wedding/kati-steve-021.jpg" border="0" /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;"><a href="http://katemcelweeblog.com/2009/07/18/meridian-park-fremont-abbey-kati-steve/">Image Sources</a></span><br /><br />Oh and be sure to check out the <a href="http://katemcelweeclients.com/clients/slideshow/Kati+SteveWedding/">slideshow</a>, many more gorgeous shots from this great wedding!<br /><span style="color:#33ccff;">Oh und schaut euch mal die </span><a href="http://katemcelweeclients.com/clients/slideshow/Kati+SteveWedding/"><span style="color:#33ccff;">Diashow</span></a><span style="color:#33ccff;">, noch mehr geniale Bilder von dieser tollen Hochzeit!</span>Christinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06259082028779290140noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841985008790352377.post-78108006649858233282009-09-03T14:52:00.003+02:002009-09-03T14:56:39.694+02:00Song of the WeekI really love this song.

There are so many German girls and maybe boys looking for inspiration for whatever and the main blogs are just written in English. Of course, many German are not bad in English but as I noticed they welcome German written blogs, too.<br /><br /><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 225px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://th02.deviantart.net/fs15/300W/f/2007/053/2/4/Love__by_darkbutterfly6.jpg" border="0" /><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;">Wie ich eben von </span><a href="http://www.rocknrollbride.com/"><span style="color:#660000;">Rock'n Roll Bride</span></a><span style="color:#660000;"> </span><a href="http://www.rocknrollbride.com/2009/08/seo-the-art-of-making-google-and-blog-land-your-friend/"><span style="color:#660000;">hier</span></a><span style="color:#33ccff;"> gelernt habe, muss ein Blog einzigartig sein.<br /><br />Also werde ich meine Beiträge in Englisch als auch in Deutsch schreiben.

I think it's perfect for a candy buffet or a kid's birthday party :-)</div><div>And so I ask for permission to post the recipe. Thanks to Patricia!</div><div></div><br /><div><u>Lavender Lollipops</u></div><div>(makes about 12)</div><div></div><br /><div>Ingredients:</div><div>½ cup (120ml) water</div><div>2 teaspoons edible dried lavender buds (or vanilla)</div><div>1 cup (200g) sugar</div><div>1/3 cup light corn syrup</div><div>few drops of purple food coloring (using a toothpick) - you can use any other color too</div><div></div><br /><div>Start by making a lavender infusion: place water and lavender in a small saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and boil for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat, cover and set aside until completely cold – I made the infusion the day before and left it covered at room temperature. Strain the infusion.</div><div></div><br /><div>Oil a marble slab or baking sheet. Have ready at least a dozen wooden sucker sticks.</div><div></div><br /><div>In a heavy 2-quart saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup and 1/3 cup (80ml) of the lavender infusion; stir to blend. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Cover and boil for 2-3 minutes. Uncover and insert a candy thermometer in the pan. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until the temperature reaches 143ºC/290ºF. If sugar crystals form on the pan sides, wash the down with a pastry brush dipped in warm water.</div><div>Remove the pan from the heat and immediately dip the bottom of it into a pan of cold water to arrest cooking, removing quickly before the mixture gets too cold. Place on a dry kitchen towel and add the food coloring.</div><div>Using a large metal spoon, immediately spoon a little less than 4cm (1½ in) pools of syrup onto the prepared marble slab/sheet*.

Seeing paper and hand-written notes increasingly taking a back seat to email and digital communications, we set out to restore the excitement and the days of announcements, invitations and "just-because" notes in everyone's mailboxes. Having worked in ecommerce in Silicon Valley for many years and sharing a passion for new technology that makes people's lives easier and more convenient, we were inspired to build a website that made shopping for paper fun, easy and even better than the store shopping experience. As recent newlyweds ourselves, we were especially drawn to the wedding market after personally going through the frustrating experience of trying to shop for unique, high-quality wedding invitations online.<br />Since our parent company, <a href="http://www.tinyprints.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Tiny Prints</a>, launched in Spring 2004, we have been very fortunate to serve our very loyal and passionate customers who share our same appreciation for giving great stationery. We love what we do and find great joy in helping brides-to-be find the perfect design and paper that inspires and leaves a lasting impression.<br />Wedding Paper Divas, a recent addition to the family to <a href="http://www.tinyprints.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Tiny Prints</a>, offers only exclusive designs and stationery found nowhere else online or offline. We work with well-known to up-and-coming artists who design wedding invitations, bridal shower invitations and thank you cards just for Wedding Paper Divas. And because we use the latest in digital printing technology, you are guaranteed the highest quality printing and extremely fast turnaround.<<<br /><br />Here are some great examples of their invitations series - be sure to check out all the rest of their range :-)<br /><br /><img style="DISPLAY: block;

It sounds yummy :-)</div><div></div><br /><div><strong><em>Ingredients (6-8 portions)</em></strong></div><div><em></em></div><div><em>Strawberry sauce:</em></div><div><em>1 kg strawberries, washed and cut into pieces (not too small)</em></div><div><em>75 g sugar</em></div><div><em>1 T lemon juice<br /></em></div><div><em>Fresh strawberries:</em></div><div><em>750 g Strawberries, washed and cut in half, kept in the fridge<br /></em></div><br /><div><em>Biscuits:</em></div><div><em>280 g flour</em></div><div><em>2 ½ t baking powder</em></div><div><em>1 t salt</em></div><div><em>1 T sugar</em></div><div><em>75 g cold butter, cut into small pieces</em></div><div><em>180 ml cold cream</em></div><div></div><br /><div>1 Begin by making the strawberry sauce. Put everything into a small pan, lid on, and cook until it boils. Remove the lid and let simmer for 10 minutes.<br />2 Prepare the fresh strawberries and set aside in a container in the fridge.<br />3 Preheat your oven to 225°C. Line a baking sheet with paper.<br />4 Whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl, then blend in the cold butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles a coarse meal. Add the cold cream and stir just until a dough forms.<br />5 Put the dough out onto a slightly floured work surface and pat or roll out the dough to 1cm thickness. Use a glass or cookie cutter to cut the dough into portions and place on the baking sheet. Try and cut the pieces very close together so you don't have to re-roll out the dough, which ruins the light texture of it.<br />6 Bake for 10-12 minutes.<br />7 Now pack up your items for picnic transport as follows: wrap the biscuits in a cotton towel, take your warm strawberry sauce in one container, the fresh in another. For those of you who like whipped cream, don't forget to pack a can of it.<br />8 Here is the assembly of the dessert: take a biscuit and but it in half, horizontally. Put the bottom half on a plate, followed by the warm sauce, the fresh berries, the whipped cream and the other biscuit half. Eat and enjoy.</div><br /><div></div><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 549px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 591px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://cynthiabarcomi.com/img/recipes/StrawberryShortcake.jpg" border="0" /><br /><div><span style="font-size:78%;">Everything by <a href="http://cynthiabarcomi.com/">Cynthia Barcomi</a></span></div><div><span style="font-size:78%;">If you haven't tried her baking stuff, get her baking book.
