That First Anniversary Tradition

For some reason unbeknownst to the average individual, wedded couples participate in a bizarre tradition: the eating of the wedding cake one year later. For most newlyweds, this means reaching into the way-back of your freezer and pulling out the top layer of your $1298379q85948w65 wedding cake. Some people even keep the little figurines in there (which I think is kind of cruel).

But for us, if you were at our wedding, you know we didn't have a traditional cake. We had tarts. Delicious fresh fruit tarts from Whole Foods. Are we spoiled or what? Unfortunately, fruit tarts can't be frozen. We also ate all of our personal tart while waiting to board the plane to Costa Rica.

Even though we don't understand the tradition, Z and I decided we were participating in it. We went to Whole Foods, purchased a tart, and proceeded to re-enact the practice of feeding it to each other.

I think we'll make this an annual thing.

Until next year ...
