I was starting to get really nervous when I walked in on Teri checking out wedding invitations online today.  I asked her “what are you doing honey” trying to control the panic in my voice.  She said ”I’m helping my sister Sue pick out wedding cards and wedding stationary for her wedding!”

“Whew!” I exclaimed.  “That was a close call!”  We both laughed.  Teri and I have been together for about three years now, and the topic of marriage comes up from time to time, especially when Teri sees a new baby, she gets all “maternal instinct” and “my biological clock is ticking” on me.  But we both agreed that we wanted to wait a while and save up enough money so that when we DO get married and start to raise a family that Teri can stay home and be a “stay at home” mother if that is what she decides she wants to do. 

So anyway, I sat down with her to look at the website that she was looking at.  The website is called minted.com.  They sell a large variety of cards, not just wedding related items.  They appear to be a very unusual card company, they claim to sell “eco-friendly” cards but I can’t find out what exactly makes them “eco-friendly.”  I’d like to know more about that!
