Pamper Party

When someone is getting married it is customary to give them a kitchen tea, in "the old days" this was because they were making a home for the first time, how times have changed.................... my daughter has been living away from home for 8 years so instead of the old fashioned kitchen tea, we decided to give her a pamper party ...........
We decided on a breakfast just to be different, and the bridesmaids liked the idea ........ so we booked at the Crazy Daisy tea garden, really because i am feeling very lazy, and really just don't have the strength for preparing food and
doing dishes ................ i think i am currently at arranging overload and am really feeling very washed out , so i decided for once to take the lazy route ............... thank goodness for sms's it is amazing how quickly you can arrange something using this amazing technology, within days those who could attend had accepted and the pamper party was a green .........................
It was amazing and a credit to my daughter as people were phoning me and asking when the party would be even before the invitations had been sent out ................ i remember i used to hate kitchen tea's they were just so boring, and the dressing up was really something which was really just not funny at all, so i decided to go with a sophisticated event, with a little juicy innuendo .....................
I am not sure how much of a surprise it was, as she knew something was coming, but what we did was certainly a
surprise ..........
We had breakfast, and then played some games, which were really fun, i think the most fun was when we played pass the parcel, it is amazing that no matter how old you are you don't want to be left holding that parcel when the "music" ends.................. We did make her do a few slightly embarrassing things, one of the things she had to do was ask 4 people for R 5.00 can you believe that people gave her R 50.00 ......................... ...
The gifts she received were all amazing, and with 22 people it was strange that she never received one duplication, everyone had purchased a different fragrance even though the product might have been the same ............ she was really spoilt, with hair products, .and the odd suggestive bra's and pyjama's not to mention of course the dice that my friend bought, ........... one dice represents places in the house ......... the other has positions on .................. need i say more ................. definately information overload for a mother ...................
We then sent her and two of her bridesmaids off to the spa for the afternoon......... they came back glowing and very very
relaxed ................................................
With only two weeks to the wedding i think that was just what she needed ..............
