I came across this idea on another message board i was reading, so it's not my original idea, but thought it was pretty cute and wanted to share...could easily be done in SA or bamboo bowl w/ our tongs and either bamboo towels or other towels...

Last year there was a cute salad bowl idea. You filled the salad bowl with $1.00 bills and but in the tongs and I put dish towels in the bottom to fill up the bowl. the dollar bills looked like the lettuce and then there was a cute poem to go with it. I have lost the poem but I'm sure somebody on the board knows it. It was a big hit at the bridal shower I went too. Everybody asked for the poem so they could use it.

Here's the poem.
We tossed together some love

And some best wishes too

Sprinkled it with a blessing

Hoping life is good to you

Then we took some money

And added it for fun

Hoping you enjoy this dish

When you two become one
 
this is cute!!! now if only i knew someone getting married!
 
So use the tongs and dig in To the salad that we've made And use the towels to clean up When the salad bowl is paid May your marriage be blessed With love and laughter too And may all your dreams come true With each other's love for you.
