Sweet shrimp in garlicky olive oil is just about the ideal tapas bar snack. The sweet shrimp and garlic aroma go perfectly with a nice sherry, while the leftover oil at the bottom of the earthenware dish is the ideal sopping-up liquid for good Spanish bread.
When to Have the Bridal Shower. A bridal shower can be held anywhere from six months to the week before a wedding. If many guests are traveling from out of town, it may make sense to have it closer to the wedding so they can attend. Otherwise four to eight weeks before the wedding works.
Later may not be better. Don't wait until the last-minute because the baby may come early. In addition, at the tail end of a pregnancy, a woman can become very big, very tired and may not be in the mood for a festive occasion. Many pregnant women recommend having the baby shower approximately a month to five weeks before the baby's due date, notes Pregnant.thebump.com.
