Skyler got me these amazing flowers, and this is me just saying that it's our first year. Not like, "I'm #1 and you're #2." Sheesh. Anyway, they lasted for more than a week and were stunning. He totally surprised me with them and I just LOVED them.
We opened presents and exchanged cards and I cried a little. So what. Crying just means your really mean it and it's true.
GO SWEATS!!
Skyler's Mom saved the top tier of our cake and we broke out the Martinelli's.
And, true to what we all could have guessed: One-year-later-frozen-now-thawed-wedding cake is, in fact super gross.I mean, it still looked awesome. Ribbon still attached, sparkly crystal sugar things on top, and I even dug out the 'G' topper and presented
it on my pretty china. And I won't be so cliche as to say "Looks can be deceiving," because I feel more like the truth is, "The better it looks, the more disappointing it is when you eat it and it tastes like it might have been injected with some kind of poison or dirty mud." (I'm lobbying to turn that sentence into a cliche. Think it'll stick?) And, yeah, I said it-- dirty mud. The texture wasn't bad, but it did not taste good.
And, I feel like that picture makes it look like a midget cake, and it wasn't. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with midgets or their cakes for that matter. We watch Little People Big World all the time and we love kids. I'm just saying, mine was average sized and oddly photographed.
Anyway, the happy ending is that memories were made and palatable dessert was consumed-- bananas dipped in warm, delicious chocolate. Mmmmmmmm.Happy 1st Anniversary, SKY!!
More soon,
Melanie

Happy Anniversary! I'm impressed that you actually attempted to eat the year-old frozen cake. It was just a little bit too much work for Nick and I to save the top and we threw the whole cake in the garbage at our reception on our way out. Wasn't that great anyways!
Ah you guys are cute! I wanted to eat our cake top for our anniversary so bad. It got frozen...then it got taken out of the freezer and eaten by Char and Shelly if I remember correctly. Those punks. Actually I think they asked my Mom and she said sure, got for it. We missed out on the dirty mud taste.
Alright, so I just foudn your blog again on Holly Andersons. You CRACK me up, that's all I'm saying. What a fun little remembery post. Glad your anniversary was good. And frankly, I think a law should be passed, no cake after one year of freezing, it's just retarded and can never end well.
