Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Thrive to spite them

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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I've seen cupcakes instead of wedding cake on Offbeat Bride and one couple had an assortment of pies instead of wedding cake.

At my cousin's wedding in Denver, their friends baked a ton of different pies for dessert. It was wonderful.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I think the older generation really likes registries because they like the idea of helping you create a home. My mom still has stuff that she got as wedding presents, so the idea that she would buy something that the couple would keep and remember 60 years later is happy-making.

Yes, helping newleyweds set up their household can be fun!

Registries for a third marriage are not as much fun (in my opinion). A cousin announced an engagement for a 4th marriage recently and I vowed to myself not to send a gift.

Sparky, why couldn't he eat the cake?

I like cupcakes, and could see them solving a fair number of cake-related issues (like, hard to have multiple cakes, but you could have some gluten free cupcakes and some vegan and some with bacon and all the wheat)

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I've seen cupcakes instead of wedding cake on Offbeat Bride and one couple had an assortment of pies instead of wedding cake.

I'm down with cupcakes, although I'm not sure how Tim feels. I mean, he likes cupcakes in general -- he would never turn one down if it was offered -- but he might want an actual cake for his wedding.

Registries for a third marriage are not as much fun (in my opinion). A cousin announced an engagement for a 4th marriage recently and I vowed to myself not to send a gift.

Since this is Tim's second marriage, I figure some people won't give us gifts, and I don't really care. I don't know how to do the math on Tim's Second Marriage + Steph's First Marriage, so whatever.

Sparky, why couldn't he eat the cake?

He doesn't mix milk & meat, so since he ate meat at the meal, he couldn't have a dessert with milk in it. We had a dairy-free kosher cupcake that a friend brought from Seattle.

Awww, I think people are going to want to give you both lots of wedding gifts (including me). This particular relative is a serial monogamist who married someone new every 3 or 4 years (in one case with days in between marriages). I've spent several hundreds of dollars over the years to be part (or sponsor) of her weddings. Very different from you and Tim. I'm sorry if I sounded judgmental of you guys!
