Here Comes The Bride

On Saturday I got to help with a bridal event at Macy's. Some of the KitchenAid "big wigs" came in to town to put on a great demo for all the brides-to-be. I had so much fun! We spent Friday night grocery shopping, prepping food, setting up the demo area, and getting to know each other {I got home around midnight}. The next day began bright and early at 7:45 a.m. I'm so grateful to my parents for letting the kids sleep over and watching them both days {thank you, thank you}! It was such a fun day. We made some yummy recipes, which I'll post on Cookbook Junkies soon. Here are a few pics to whet your appetite!

I learned a few things from this event:

#1- people are obsessed with "free stuff" and will do just about anything to get a set of measuring spoons {I think some even sold their souls}.

#2- Cake decorators should not bring samples of their cake to bridal events in the mall unless they are prepared to lose most of their inventory to clueless old ladies and pregnant moms with 5 kids in tow.

#3- People are now getting married at the age of 15. I swear, some of the brides I talked to looked like they should be taking drivers ed, not registering for food processors {they acted like it, too}.
