I'm just terribly sad Teppy is non-glutinous, so I can't persuade her to take ME as her helper for wedding-cake tasting at The Bonbonerie.
I understand they do some gluten-free stuff now, but I don't think that extends to their cakes. Laura is right -- you'll have to be my gluten-taster! Although Tim might cry if he can't test cakes. There is a gluten-free bakery (or maybe just a baker) up in Mason, possibly, that made an amazing cake for a friend's birthday party. We have to check that out.
My mom and stepdad apparently went to a wedding where there were cupcakes instead of a cake, and they thought that was the coolest thing ever. Their enthusiasm last night for cupcakes was comical. (I'm not opposed to cupcakes, but they were like cupcake evangelists.)
Steph , btw how is your brother doing?
As far as I know (meaning, unless he's not telling me stuff), he's doing pretty well. Still cooking lunch at the Threepenny Tap Room, but he wants to get out of cooking.
Not sure whether this is evidence pro or con cupcakes, but Taylor Swift had cupcakes instead of a normal wedding cake at her wedding.
Argh. Way to make me paranoid: so, I had a mammogram the other week, because my mom had breast cancer at 40. No other family history, so it was basically "ok, let's get a baseline". I know people have to get follow up all the time, and my doctor pretty much said they probably wouldn't be able to tell much because I have very dense breasts. OK, NBD. Did it, it was fine, not as uncomfortable as I was worried about. Get the letter in the mail "please call and schedule follow up we need more it's probably not cancer" OK, still NBD. ...but when I call, and you ask if I want first available, and I tell you I"m available days X, Y, and Z, due to being out of town, and you tell me to hold on, and then get back to me saying "I had to get approval to add you at 4pm, so we'll squeeze you in on Day Y" that...makes me feel like this is rather more urgent than I had hoped it was. If you know what I mean. Grrr.
Since my DH couldn't eat the wedding cake, we had a cupcake we used to mock the cutting of the cake. I never got a chance to try my wedding cake, but on our first anniversary, he had the baker overnight a cake and frosting in the flavors we'd ordered and we put it together. Note: our baker was on an island off the coast of Washington state, and for our first anniversary we were in a little cabin in the Maine woods.
Seriously, this is so true, and SO BAFFLING to me!
It is soooo crazy. I tell every engaged couple that says anything about not having a registry that there will be crazy backlash. And there always is.
Taylor Swift is married? Since when?
I swear I had heard about it, but according to the Internet not. OK wrong again.
OK, Professor Internet tells me it was Carrie Underwood. [link]
I've seen cupcakes instead of wedding cake on Offbeat Bride and one couple had an assortment of pies instead of wedding cake.
If Dean Winchester ever got married I'm sure he'd have pie.
