Minnesota Renaissance Festival this past weekend to pick up a few last things for the upcoming Big Day – and I swung by the henna tattoo tent and had the artists freehand a design on me noggin…
Front view:


Top view:


Side view:


As you can see, the top was begining to flake off a bit - but then the stained design will stay for a week or so...

I was informed that traditionally the purpose of the henna tattoo was that a newlywed wife would have one done, and as long as the stain lasted – she was free from having to do any housework…
But after it faded – it was “business as usual” for her.

And I apologize in advance if I offended any knee-jerk feminists with that above remark – but I didn’t come up with the tradition…
So please don’t shoot the messenger.

Thank you…

Congratulations on your recent nuptials, Gwyn! Who's the lucky dude? Good luck with all the housework considering that it's begun to flake. Just joking. Hey, you shouldn't have admitted that you got a newlywed wife's design on your melon. But it's very cool regardless! Are you going to have it permanently tattooed?

The Joker: No worries, I am extremely thick-skinned and very hard to offend – and being a bit of a sarcastic wiseass myself – I know how to take a joke…
I am however (along with all my groomsmen) getting inked on my bachelor party – it’s a long standing tradition I started with my hometown friends in Chi-town. The groom picks out what, and where, the new tattoo goes – and the rest of his groomsmen follow suit…
Over the years I’ve been a best man three times – so I’ve been waiting for this day to come, payback is a bitch for sure…

Hallorenescene: Henna is surprisingly easy to work with. The Squeeze and I enjoying drawing on each other anyway – and since she works at a cake shop decorating cakes – she is a natural at it…
Just pretend that you’re writing on a cake with icing - plus it’s cheap to boot. A vial of it with a working/”drawing” tip only cost me $20 bucks…

And we don’t own a dishwasher, well – if you don’t count The Squeeze that is… (we have a deal where I cook and she cleans-up afterwards)
I have however, come up with something that will make her life easier though: this past weekend at fest was Irish Days, and part of that entailed having a bunch of local micro-brews there giving out samples for “free”. (You paid $5.00 for all you could drink in about 4 hours – which I found out, is quite a bit…) And being a homebrewer myself, I enjoyed chatting with people who share my passion for the hobby…

Anyway – after stumbling out of the beer tent, The Squeeze and I passed by a place that sold old fashioned style brooms, and since we’re having a hand-fasting type of ceremony – went in to look for a broom for her to jump over on our wedding day. While in there, I saw that they also sold a wide variety of wands – and in a momentary drunken lapse of love for my girl – told her to pick one out, and I would empower it with the ability to grant her any wish she wanted once a month for as long as we were married…
She of course jumped at this offer – and with a giddy look on her face, chooses the instrument of my doom.
I know this act of romantic love is going to come back and haunt me, time and time again…

Gwyn the head looks great! That purchase is surely going to haunt you the rest of your days. But what a thoughtful present.

I'm glad you took it the right way. And seriously, congrats on your upcoming nuptials!! It sounds like a fun tradition for a close-knit group of friends.
