Queso de Bola Spread
Because the holiday season is already so stressful, there are some things that you should never do in December.
Getting married is one of them.
This of course is from first hand experience when eight years ago, three days after Christmas, I said “I do.” When I got engaged my then fiancé said “pick a date” and there was no doubt in my mind that we would get married around the Christmas holidays. I had visions of a string quartet playing Christmas carols at the wedding reception, pointsettias hanging around the ballroom and because my Mom was taking care of the catering, I asked for a Holiday themed menu including glazed hams and roast turkeys.
The stress started as early as September when the dressmaker told me that because I wanted a beaded dress, whatever my current weight was then was what my weight had to be at my wedding. There was no room to put on any holiday weight as this would mean major adjustments to the dress.
It was hard to enjoy engagement parties and holiday get togethers when every time I’d want to stuff myself silly I’d envision a little bubble over my head and inside was the dressmaker shaking his head saying “Tsk… tsk… I told you not to eat so much!”
