Totally off topic, but it bought back a memory and made me smile (should be in the happy thread)
You making cupcakes for your mums wedding Amy. DH and I have only been married for 2 years and I didn't want a fuss as it is secomd time round for both of us. I wanted to elope and DH said he wanted his children there as they had never seen him get married before??? I explained that most peoples children don't see their parents get married because you get married and then have the kids.

We ended with only our children attend and it worked out well as my DD and SIL were witnesses.

That sounds lovely Michele

I think my mum and step-dad have only been married a couple of years too. I can't actually remember exactly when it was

We only had a small wedding for them too, about 20 people I think, so a bit bigger than yours. I made all the food and we had the wedding at my step-dad's sister's house. None of my step-dad's children were there, they don't approve of the marriage I don't think $:-\$ But I don't like them anyway so it doesn't matter to me

Hally, just another idea for some quick finger food: its not exactly "healthy", but you could roll up slices of good quality meat and cheese and secure them with toothpicks. You could even spread a little bit of dip or something down the middle before you roll them up. I've seen that done at parties before and it always seems popular

Are you going to have some little sandwiches?

Where did you learn to cook Amy? Doesn't sound (I am probably wrong) like mum does much cooking.

Just at home Michele

I watched my mum a lot in the kitchen when I was younger and I taught myself things as well. Mum used to work full time so I would cook things when she wasn't home (naughty I know

). I've always loved being in the kitchen and I love reading recipe books. I started learning how different flavours work together and the different properties of ingredients. When mum became unwell I took over all of the cooking, and its just never changed back. I think it would feel too weird if mum started doing all the cooking again since I have been doing it for so long

She does cook a meal sometimes though, but I'm usually hanging around helping out or cleaning up as she goes along. Its funny how it works, sometimes I feel like it should be the other way around $:-\$
