Cissi's hen day

We met just before eleven on Saturday before last to surprise Cissi with hen party. The schedule was full and we needed to start early. Cissi is a very suspicious person so she wasn’t as surprised as we would have hoped when we jumped at her in the subway. We started by putting on a nice tiara and a sign with six pictures where people were asked to guess which one was Cissi’s fiancé (of which one was of course the husband to be).The blushing bride...

We walked towards Hötorget where Cissi got the assignment to get as much fruit as possible for 40 sek. She did not, however, warm to the idea of haggling, but she still got a quite full bag of goodies with a little help from her bride’s maid. Then it was time for lunch at Mongolian BBQ where it also was time for presents. Everyone had bought a little gift that should represent how we knew each other. To get to know the gang a bit better and to see how well Cissi knew the gang. It wasn’t easy to guess I can tell you! The food was excellent and one ate more than needed! ;)

After that we trotted off to Make Up Store for a make up session. Of course Cissi was made the guinea pig! We learned how to make a day make up and a night make up. Very interesting and instructive. Then we were let loose amongst powders and eye shadows to make practice of what we had learned. Hehe, very dangerous. I can recommend everyone that thinks it’s quite hard to find the right colours and stuff to take one of these courses. Either alone or in a group of girlfriends.

Then it was time to leave the city for dinner at one of the bride’s maid’s apartment and some treatments for Cissi. She was made head chef and asked to compose a meal with the ingredients we had picked out for her. Cissi made it very clear that she never ever cooked with out a recipe. Nevertheless it turned out great! The cooking was delegated and Cissi was put in the sofa for a foot treatment. She also got a manicure later after dinner. It really turned out a really nice feel-good-day! We were very satisfied and Cissi was happy!

Hmm, I wonder if this is a good sign? I just blew on it…

Since we started at eleven the evening was spent in a rather quiet fashion with tasty food and tasty drinks. Everybody left for home at a respectable hour and no one was drunk! ;) Now we have to look forward to the wedding the 31^st of May!
