for those giving almonds,

I just got back from a wedding and as part of the favor was 5 almonds, on the bag was written

'Fve sugared almonds for each guest to eat
To remind us that life is both bitter and sweet
Five Wishes for the new husband and wife
Health, Wealth, Happiness, Children
and a Long Life!'

I just thought it was really cute

I am using that. I thought it was absolutlely adorable when a Bride 2 Be put me on to it.
I am making flowers to put them in.

Have to give credit where credit is due....I TOTALLY stole this from another Bride 2 Be. TOTALLY!!!!!!! I had no idea what this was or where to begin making them.

I think it is a great italian tradition, and a must at any Italian wedding. I am doing it.
