Scented Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Hey it looks like I may get to go!! Whoo Hooo!!! So I was curious how many others will be attending? Last year at the Chicago one, we did a White Elephant gift exchange and had some of Bunny's Foo Foo punch. Hey Bun, you up to making that again? Anyone interested in the White Elephant exchange?

AnitaG Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 I'm going for sure. I emailed J.T. on the hotels & she is waiting for a lady to get back to her on the rates. I stayed last yr at Comfort Suites. They made us a good rate. They had a swap too last yr & I got some really nice things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted May 16, 2006 Author Share Posted May 16, 2006 Well heck I thought this thread died lol! I'm planning on flying into Dallas on that Thursday and hitching a ride with Sherie and Kerry. Now if you had some of that punch ... mmmmm ... I think we could all help out Sure, I'll run the white elephant/gift exchange. I like the idea of what they're doing for the Ohio one and thinking ... oh something handcrafted would be ideal, but I would still leave it open to anything anyone wanted to bring. I really need to check out that link lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smellywax Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 Why didn't they make the conference in a city close to a major airport? It's 3 1/2 hrs from Dallas and 2 1/2 from Houston I would love to go...is there a closer airport? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaybee23 Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 LOL! Well, Sherie is driving! I haven't actually riden with her before, so maybe we will need some of that foofoo punch when we get there, LOL! Friday night is good with me, i am so ready for a break. Would be nice to have a count of everyone who is going from the board, so we don't miss meeting anyone.

Kaybee23 Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 I can never seem to keep it thin enough long enough, to get those beautiful swirls that a lot of others seem to get. Mine always gets thick while I am trying to pour it. Maybe that is the way I am intended to swirl, *sigh*. On the ones I do get to stay thin enough, they are the ones I don't want to color, LOL! It will happen one day and it will be magic and I will be doing the happy dance in my kitchen, LOL!p.s. Julie, your swirls are MUCH better than mine.

daniedb Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Well, CRAP! It looks amazing, and fun, and it's much more affordable than the soapmakers. But dang...it's TWO HOURS from my ILs house...I just can't see making that drive, after driving from our house, which is three hours away. I'll ponder on it, though, it sounds SO FUN!!!

I know me too. I looked at the pics and it looks like fun but where it is at is far from me and there is no direct route. I'd have to drive all over the place to get there.
