toss bouquet which was a bunch of little flower bundles tied with a ribbon so when you throw they go everywhere.
My florist friend called those cluster bomb bouquets.

They should be eaten alone, or thrown away.
Dibs on Perkins' raisins.
But not at Ellis Island: there was no "name choosing" there. [link]
I never had any idea that the bouquet was linked to virginity. One lives, one learns.
I was wondering whether or not to post that as well.

Heh. I was totally sure it was about the quickies too.

Likely story.
There should be no chocolate chips in muffins, bagels or bread.
I disagree. When one is making making chocolate bread, one should include chocolate chunks.
Chocolate bread should not exist.
its the original notion that seems icky to me now.
I didn't realize it was meant to be throwing your virginity away; I just dislike how it smacks of "Catch the bouquet and YOU WIN!!! Your grand prize for elbowing the other single women in the face to catch the flowers? A HUSBAND!!!!"
It just seems to put forth the idea that being the next one to get married is the ultimate goal OMG YOU LUCKY BITCH!!!
And, y'know, I have a LOT of goals I'd put before getting married. (Unfortunately no one throws a "world domination" bouquet.)
I like chocolate bread more than cake and etc. a lot of the time, because it's not as sweet. It's still dessert.
