Dresses :( and chocolate :)

I went wedding dress shopping today. One word. Bleh.

I'm nearly certain I've found 'the one' because a. I like it and b. it's cheap. On the cheap note - I'm a frugal type of gal (sometimes). And I just can't see myself spending a ton of money on a wedding dress. Yes, it's special. But I'm only wearing it for 6 hours.

Sooooo, today I went with my mom, grandma, mother-in-law, sister, and sister-in-law dress shopping. It. was. torture. They LOVED It but for me...after the fifth dress I was so over and done with it. They want to see me in this big traditional ball gown but it ain't happening. They hate the dress I really like, but oh well, tough shit. :)

Moving on. We were in the Coral Gables area and we had just had lunch at the ever-delicious Giardino's Salad. I seriously heart that place. Best tropical chicken EVER. While we were there, they had chocolate popcorn samples from a nearby chocolate shop. Holy cow, that shit was good! So good, we walked over there and I'm pretty sure I discovered chocolate heaven. I even saw white chocolate covered Oreos - I think I nearly peed myself right then and there.
Some damn good looking gelato ice cream.
The best chocolate-covered popcorn I have ever tasted.
A chocolate football! And it's only $35! Don't worry, I pretty sure it's hollow inside. If it wasn't, that would be a lot of chocolate.
And this my friends, is a chocolate way of life. I suggest you try Peterbrooke Chocolatier if you want some amazing chocolate goodness. D might even get lucky and get some sent to him all the way to Oklahoma.

It's not that we hate the dress you love (at least I don't) I just think you have time to look for something affordable that flatters your figure more and is better quality. that's all...but no matter what, you'll still be a beautiful bride!
