One thing I wasn’t used to when living in the US was the American grocery paper bag. Coming straight from London where all my groceries were walked home in white plastic carry bags, the paper bag seemed flimsy, difficult to carry and not leak proof. OK, I know it helps with the environment and all that but I’m a girl of convenience…..sell the idea to me a bit more and I might change my mind.

My pumpkin’s birthday is coming up in 2 weeks and I thought of making those American grocery paper bags as goodie bags since the ones you buy in the shops are not only pricey but ugly. After many weeks of looking around for substitutes, I finally did a search on how to make one. Perhaps with too little time, I didn’t find a link that made enough sense to me so I called the Hubs to be in charge of making paper bags for our daughter’s birthday.

The big wedding party of Siti Nurhaliza is happening again at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre tomorrow night. They have scaled down the wedding at the last minute, not to include the horse drawn carriage for security reasons and the Hubs suggested we do the same. Pfft…………………….

After a tussle of “I’ll do it myself then”, we settled on a competition of who could find a paper bag solution first, by experimenting et al.

He did, of course. Only because I was too busy with other things and wanted him to win, really.

So he’s busy crafting those paper bags now. 😮 The lazy boy has also formed a factory production line to do this. Efficiency, he says. He had to look really hard at a milk carton from the fridge before coming up with the final product as the memory of those paper bags that he held 863 times in the States had failed him. I’m quite pleased with the final product.

Ps – if you want to know how to make a mini American paper bag, please ask and I will show you – step by step. Oh, I just realised I didn’t take a 3 dimensional picture – well, you know what a paper bag looks like!
