If I come home and remember the pans I'll invite you over and make a kransekake just for fun. You know you want to come to a Daughters of Norway meeting with me and do some rosemaling. As much as I want to come for Norway Day it is two weeks before graduation and I may need to stay here.

Did you see the wicked cute kransekake safe given away at Convention in the Daughters of Norway newsletter?

No, my newsletter goes to my home address. I should probably get my act back together in trying to get a lodge locally as Freya was the closest and closed since the SONs are active locally.

If I ever plan to get married again maybe I'll have wheat woven decorations on the ends of pews or th tables. Since I live in a wheat producing area I have good access to plenty of wheat. Rosemaling on invitations could be really cute as well.

We used a pink gerbera daisy as our motif. It was on our save the dates, the wedding programs, and of course in our boquets and centerpieces. Since our colors were pink and pink and white, you could say we had a very Phi Mu wedding, but pink and white are my favorite colors and have been since I was small. When I met with the florist (who was also in charge of the table cloths, chair covers, etc.), I told her that I didn't want the room to look like Barbie's dream house threw up. They did a great job making very elegant.
