happy anniversary to us!
hey, today is erin & mine's first anniversary (funny no blog posts from this day last year... hmmm).
we tried our wedding cake earlier today, it was excellent. though i hear we are an exception to that rule. here is the instructions for keeping an excellent wedding cake.
- place unwrapped cake in box and freezer until frozen solid (overnight 24 hours, but no longer than 2 days)
- take frozen cake out of box and quickly wrap very closely with aluminum foil
- place wrapped cake in freezer bag, again wrapping cake closely and removing as much of the air in the bag as possible
- place wrapped and bagged cake inside another freezer bag, place wrapped cake inside box and return to freezer. (you can see that you need some prep of materials to make this happen quickly)
- on the day before anniversary, take cake out of box and remove all wrappings. return unwrapped cake to box and place in refrigerator to thaw
as our cake was very good it has been a very good year
Wow! A year already, man the time flies by doesn't it? Sounds like you had a very Happy Anniversary.

Congratulations! Here's hoping that you will match or surpass the 58 years of marriage that we had - and thanks on the tip about how to keep a very good (wedding) cake!

interesting that a post re your anniversary (happy one to both of you by the way) would be followed by a post on suffering...

Congrats! Coming up on 5 years myself next week, and birthday #2 for my youngest this week.
It's only been a couple of years, and it's already been a wild and crazy ride.
