Our Wedding Cake - One Year After

This is the center part of our wedding cake that was set aside to keep in the freezer for a year. Following the pattern of my husband's tradition, we keep center layer of the cake and frozen for the bride and groom to eat on our first anniversary.
.
That was something I had never heard before. Maybe because in the Philippines, not everybody have a freezer. I found out that many couples here in USA do this, too.
.
So, during our 1st wedding anniversary dinner, (which was two weeks ago) we took out this cake from the freezer and had some of it after our romantic dinner. How was the taste? It was not spoil, but not as good as new. We only tried small bites, and decided to throw the rest.

The Wedding Cake was a gift from my mom-in-law Sallie.It was a chocolate flavor cake. My favorite.Thank you again, Mom.

Tungsten Wedding Bands

My husband and I got married August 2nd last year. Two weeks before that day, there were still a lot of things unattended and few stuff that we needed to buy. We even almost forgot we still didn’t have the wedding bands. We have been looking in many jewelry stores but I just can’t find exactly the kind that I was looking for. Then, we had decided to look into websites and there we found it. The thrilled part was, a day before our wedding day, the wedding bands arrived. Whew!
.
Talking about Wedding Rings , our present age gave us alternatives to choose with rather than the traditional gold one. There are silver, two-tone (which is the silver on gold), tri-tone (which is silver, gold and bronze), titanium, etc. Titanium wedding bands are exquisite and a lot of new couples brags about its uniqueness and stunning style. I saw this one online. If I had seen this during the time that I was looking for our wedding bands, I would definitely take this one. These are called tungsten rings , made with the superior tungsten carbide alloy instead of being made from pure metal. It is known to be the hardest metal ever used to be in jewelry creation. I like this one, domed tungsten carbide ring with a slightly domed surface and two thin grooves: The grooves break the surface of the ring into three parts. It is scratch proof and always look like new polished.
