Me Penguin, You Jane
What is it about wanting to impress your future mother in law? I have a FANTASTIC FMIL. She's the kind of mother that you could only wish you'll be. She puts her children first and foremost in everything she does. I was describing her once to my good friend and I started bawling just talking about her. Last year she and her sisters sewed me my own Christmas Stocking (or "sock" as Mr. Penguin likes to call it) and I just about died right then and there. Needless to say, I always find myself wanting to impress her, even though its hard, because I'm half Thai-half Insane.
Since our engagement, I find myself exchanging E-Mails with her more frequently than usual, just keeping her posted on how the planning is going and what not...but I find myself avoiding sending her E-Mails because I don't know what to call her! I'm perfectly comfortable calling Mr. Penguin's dad by his first name, but for some reason, I cant get myself to call my FMIL anything! I feel like calling her by her first name or Mrs. Lastname is incredibly formal, while calling her "Mom" is inappropriate. Occasionally she E-mails both Mr. Penguin and I simultaneously, where she signs off as "Mom". But when she sends E-Mails to me alone, she signs them "Love, Jane"
I've gone through scads of vague E-Mail greetings, varying from "Hello there!" to "Its me again!" But never "Hi Mom" or "Dear Jane" or "Greetings Mrs. Penguin".
Are you experiencing parental name block? Have you and your FMIL/FFIL addressed the issue as to what you should greet them as, or are you skating by in a world of namelessness?

Etsy Wedding Finds - Bride Illustrations
Weddingbee reader Angel made a great Etsy find 2 days ago! I've been looking to have an illustration done of me in my wedding dress to have as a keepsake and heirloom, but many are beyond my price range ($400 and up).
Etsy seller JHMdesign does custom drawings of brides in their dresses (or the dresses alone) for $80!
The artist uses a mixture of charcoal pencil and paint. The illustration is 11 X 14, and the monogram is optional. Submit your photograph of you in your dress via E-Mail and she will take care of the rest! Your custom drawing arrives in 4-6 weeks.

...I think I'll scour Etsy for everyone now for great wedding finds and make it a regular post! What do you think?

Blenders
Part 1- Pots and Pans
Part 2 - Knives
Part 3 - Coffee Makers
Here's mine, works like a charm! and only 2 speeds...cause really? Do I need a 15 speed blender? I need a blender that has speeds of "Margarita" and "Chimichurri". That's about it.
Waring 60th Anniversary Blender $130
First off, consider what you'll be doing with your blender - Most blenders can handle "regular" cooking blending fairly well, but if you are looking to host lots of frozen drink parties, you really want to look into a higher end model that has lots of power. But, there's no need to register for a top dollar for a high-end model if you don't need all that power.
Capacity - Most models vary from 1 to 3 liters. Consider what you'll be using your blender for. I like to puree soups, which would mean that I'd consider a higher capacity model.
Sturdiness - Check to see what the footing/base of the blender is made of, and if it is wide and stable. Stainless steel footings are usually rated as the sturdiest. Plastic is common, and the cheapest, but are lighter and significantly less sturdy. Carafes are usually made of glass or plastic. Both have upsides and downsides. Glass breaks easier than plastic, and must be handled with care. Plastic sometimes absorbs the smells of whatever you are blending, and often it's hard to remove the scent, which means you might get a Chimichurri scented margarita, in my case. Gross. Carafes sometimes come in stainless steel, which are the sturdiest, and last the longest. The downside is that you cannot see the blending process happening, and it is harder to determine when you've perfectly blended your ingredients.
Power - Blenders range from 300-500 watts for small blenders and 1200 for larger blenders. Typical home blenders range in the 300-500 watt range. Blenders usually have anywhere from 3 to 16 speeds. Some people enjoy the range of speeds, but most users will find 3 speeds sufficient.
The lowest speeds on a blender are good for light batters and for incorporating dry or solid ingredients into liquids. Higher speeds are designed for stiffer ingredients...for example, ice and hard candy. If you're looking for a model that will handle ice well, look for a higher wattage model...typically, the higher the better, for ice crushing purposes.
Controls - blenders with touch pads are the easiest to keep clean, because there aren't any little nooks and crannies for your ingredients to fall into. However, I've found (and this goes for most appliances) that electronic controls often poop out faster than good ol' appliances that have knobs, push buttons, or simple flip switches (like my blender, above). If the electronic controls break, often your machine is broken, even if the motor is still functioning just fine. So take this into account...sometimes newer ISN'T always better.
Here are Consumer Reports top blenders:
Blenders
1. Vita-Mix 5000 ($400)
2. Blendtec Total Blender ($400)
3. Breville Ikon BBL600XL ($200)
4. L'Equip 228 ($130)
5. Oster Counterforms BVLB07-L ($80)
Part 2 - Knives
Part 3 - Coffee Makers
Alright. So I didn't come up with a catchy name for this post. But its about blenders, ya hear? Blenders are one thing I actually don't have to register for. Mr Penguin and I knew very well that after we moved in together (three years ago) that we would eventually get married, so we tried our hardest not to buy ANYTHING registry related. About 2 years into cohabiting, I burst into a crying rage in the kitchen and screamed "I NEED A BLENDER OR I WILL DIE" so we went out that day and bought one, mostly to ease Mr. Penguin's fears that I would murder him with our dull, cheap kitchen knives.

The Best Part of Waking Up...
Part 1 - Pots and Pans
Part 2 - Knives
The filter - There are basically 2 kinds...A basket shaped filter or a cone shaped filter. The difference between them are the amount of time that the coffee grounds touch the water. A basket filter provides longer contact time than a cone filter, which means that your grounds will have to be larger with a basket filter (or, you'll be able to make a stronger pot of coffee with a basket filter). There are also gold tone filters available out there, which will give your coffee a richer taste (for a richer price).
The color of the machine - Not a big deal, right? Wrong. White coffee machines will stain and discolor and look "older" faster than a black, red, or silver model.
Shape of coffee pot - If the pot has a skinny neck and is hard to clean with soap and water, chances are you'll clean it less, and your coffee will taste stale over time. Look for a coffee pot that is dishwasher safe.
Attached grinder - Fresh ground beans ALWAYS taste better! I prefer to have a seperate coffee grinder (That way if it breaks, my coffee pot is still okay, and vice versa), but if you're looking to register for a maker with an attached brinder, look for a burr grinder rather than a blade grinder. They are more expensive but will give you a consistantly better grind. Blade grinders dont really grind beans, they slash the beans into smaller particles, giving you an inconsistant grind, ranging from fine powder to choppy large chunks.
Water temperature - This, in my opinion, is one of the most IMPORTANT factors for good coffee! For a perfect pot of coffee, the water temperature needs to be around 200 degrees Fahrenheit. In general, the less expensive coffee makers don't get this hot. Brand names that pride themselves on giving you great results will clearly advertise the temperature you can expect to reach while brewing with their pots.
Brand name - if you're going to invest in an expensive pot, you might as well go for a well known brand name. That way, if it does break, it will be easier (and less expensive) for your repairman to find the right parts for your machine. Obscure brands will often not be worth fixing because the parts are hard to find.
Here are Consumer Reports top rated kitchen appliances, by category.
1. Black and Decker Smartbrew DCM2500 ($35)
2. Black and Decker Smartbrew DCM2000 ($25)

4. Hamilton Beach Brew Station 47454 ($80)
5. Mr. Coffee FTX25 ($50)
Part 2 - Knives
There are TONS of different coffee makers out there. I'm always fascinated by the price ranges...using the same beans you can essentially make similar cups of coffees with a $20 model and a $200 model, right? Maybe. So here's what to pay attention for when choosing your marital coffee machine.

Hometown Homage
Since our wedding is near my hometown, I wanted to find a fun little way to pay respects to Mr. Penguin's hometown of Minneapolis. I came across this fabulous artist, Adam Turman and his cool Twin Cities 2008 Calendar, perfect for numbering our tables in a fun way. I love using Calendars for art (or table numbers) because you get 12 prints for a great deal! I got this calendar from Lulu.com for $17.54. I'm always on the lookout for great calendars to cut out and frame...lots of times they are cheaper than buying a single print!
For our table numbers, we'll name them Minneapolis/St. Paul landmarks such as:
(Clockwise from top left)
1. Pillsbury
2. St. Anthony Main
3. Minnesota State Fair
4. Lake Harriet
5. Gold Medal Flour
6. Grain Belt
How are you giving a nod to you or your Fiance's hometown?

Cake Topper Progress
I'm simultaneously hyperventilating and blogging at the moment because my friend Jenny Louuu-wheeeze (who also happens to be my DOC, sister of my MOH, Daughter of my officiant, a September 2008 bride and an all around kick-ass lady) just sent me her progress on my Ann Woods-Inspired cake topper she's painstakingly hand making for me!

A little background...
When Mrs. Gummibear received her huge shipment of Ann Wood's Birds, I turned green with envy. I'd been tracking Ann's Blog and Shop for a while, praying (seriously...like down on my knees every night) that she would resume selling (or at least taking orders for) her little birdies. I had shown Jenny Ann's cake toppers, and my F-Step-MIL even hinted that if we were to hear back from Ann soon, Mr. Penguin and I might find the birds under the Christmas tree this year. About a month went by with no response, and no update to her shop, when Jenny stepped in and said she'd try to recreate the birdies just for us. She ran out to the craft store that night and kicked her childhood craft skills back into action!
Of course, as luck would have it, one week later Ann Wood had e-mailed me and let me know that she'd resumed her birdcrafting, but by then, Jenny had already began turning my bird dreams into reality! I'm SO SO SO thrilled to have one of my great friends make me some Ann-Inspired birdies of my own.
Here's the story of the girl bird, as told by Jenny:
Hi! I learned something this weekend - these damn birds are harder than they look. But the girl is taking shape...

1. Thick floral wire strung through the body for the legs (My MOH's idea!)
2. Legs before Feet!
3. Hot glue to make the legs more substantial and to glue on small pieces of wire for the feet (you can see her practice leg lying on the paper bag)
4. The legs and feet ready to be glittered

1. Glitter Legs are dry! She stands about 6 inches tall with her veil
2. Another View
3. Her dress goes on! It's secured with a tiny fabric rose (and some hot glue...)
4. Another View
Now she has a face! She's almost done. The eyes are a little too blue so I'm going to color the rhinestones with a black sharpie. She's also pretty white so I'm going to shade her a little bit with some rose or tan eyeshadow (after practice on a dummy!) to make her look a little more "antique."
Here she is! Rouge was added to her cheeks and belly and her eyes were colored black.

Ahh. SO SO SO cute. Its good to have friends in crafty places. Now I've gotta run and get a paper bag to breathe into...all this excitement is about to make me pass out.
If you'd like some little birdies of your own, check out Ann Wood's Shop
I'll keep you updated on the boy-birdie progress in the months to come!

Secret Santa
***Bee - Not sure when we are all going to post these, whether before Christmas or after...but here's my Secret Santa post...***
I put my crafty hat on and turned an ugly lamp shade into a fun one, using some of my Secret Santa's favorite colors! Here's how:
MATERIALS:
- Lamp Base
- Circular (NOT GRADUATED) lampshade (you cant properly wrap ribbon horizontally around a "typical" graduated lampshade)
- Ribbon of your choosing
- Hot glue gun

The directions are pretty straightforward. Hot glue ribbon around the lampshade. Get creative with varying widths and color patterns.

Make sure all the "ugly seams" line up, that way you can cover them with a vertical strip of ribbon.
That's it! You can customize a lamp to match any room in your house!

Merry Christmas!

Wedding Related Abbreviations (WR Abbr's)
Happy Monday Ladies! A few months back, we had a discussion on the boards as to the meanings of all these crazy wedding related abbreviations. When I was first engaged, I began reading Knottie bios and noticed that a lot of girls would talk about their "E-Rings." I thought that an E-Ring was some newfangled electronic ring that girls were getting from their fiances, similar to an "E-Mail." I wondered for over a month why I had never heard of this new fad in "virtual ring giving." So here they are, in all their strange abbreviated glory.
May you never be confused again as to why girls are getting so excited over their newly acquired STD's.
