Wasps, Bikes, and Cookies

To keep a record of how this First Year of marriage is faring, I'm going to try to do one blog post a week as a sum-up of all the fun we're having.  (Unless there is no fun to speak of, in which case I'll post my favourite sad songs for the week.)

{ I'm not usually squeamish about wasps, but this one sounded like a motorcycle. Warren annihilated him, but it took three hits with a shoe to get him to go down.  Terrifying. }

{ Here's a picture of Warren being a champ and sanding down our tandem bike frame by hand so we can paint it candy apple red and be the envy of hipsters everywhere. }

 { While Warren sanded down the tandem,  I sat on this. }

{ And ate these. } 

{ Running low on cookies is a problem over here, so I made more.  I accidentally used mint chocolate chips instead of regular ones, which could have been a disaster.}

{ They were, however, received well. }

My friend Antoinette bought me my wedding shoes long before I had found a wedding dress, but I'm not 1OO% sure that they are going to work with the dress I picked.  Peep 'em:

{ Zinda via gravity pope }

Since we're looking at August 6th (not exactly Eskimo weather in Edmonton), I'm debating getting some  sandals to wear in addition to these beauties.

 { You wouldn't know it by looking at this image, but these sandals by Browns are BLINDING with sparkles.  They also come in gold!  }

{  These Seychelles almost make me wanna swap in my ridiculous Lady Di gown and go for a Cleopatra sheath instead. Almost. }

{  If I could handle myself in these for an entire day I would.  The colour is lickable.  }
