Thanks! It was very fun -- I am pagan and so we had them do a traditional handfasting for us, but we did it with an Elvis in a retro diner. I'll have pictures some time the future if you'd like to see.

Ugh! I'm surprised it hasn't arrived there, yet! It should be some time soon. I logged on fully expecting to see that you had received it.

ok Ladies, the box MAY be nigh. I just stepped outside my apartment door, to take some garbage down the hall, and picked up a small white card that was just lying on the floor in the hallway. It was from Canada Post, and has my name on it. I absolutely have the worst mail lady in the country. My husband was home all day and nobody rang.Anyway, I now have to go to the outlet tommorrow after work to pick up whatever this package is. I have not ordered anything and do not usually get sent packages from family without warning. So keep your fingers crossed!

also(purely to vent) the card said "final Notice". I have not received any other notices , so heaven knows how long this package has been languishing away in the back of the delivery truck somewhere.:mmph:

You're next! Don't forget to PM me your address. I have my 6 month old grandson on the weekend, so chances are, the box won't get sent out till early next week :) I have a few larger items that i wanted to get in last time, but it wouldn't fit, so i may have to do some real purging.

Oh, thank goodness it arrived safely! I can't wait to see what you choose!

As for how we got everything in there... Mr. Zombi had to hold it closed while I taped it. It was a team effort.

The boots toner was one of my first picks, it is "damask rose" and the scent is amazing! I have not seen that particular product around here, so i was pretty excited..and yes the powder is in the tube! I don't have an empty compact at the moment, but i actually used it this morning..i tapped a bit of it into the palm of my hand and swirled a big brush through it..i might look for something better though..lol

Ah, good! I put the Boots toner in there; it's no longer available in stores around here, but I found I didn't really fancy it for my skin. The bottle is very pretty, though, isn't it? :) I actually think that Boots is going to or has already discontinued the Original Beauty Formula line, which that toner is from.
