our one-year anniversary!

So this is a month after the fact, but here's our lovely one-year anniversary! We went to Kansas City, ate at the Melting Pot (a first for both of us) and stayed at the bed and breakfast where we spent our honeymoon. It was a lovely way to celebrate this milestone in our marriage. And we always enjoy tasty and new dining experiences. The tomato basil cheddar fondue we had was delicious, and our server, who was great, set our dessert fondue (tiramisu) on fire as he poured it into the serving pot. Quite a dramatic meal!

After Mom almost forgot the cakes at home, and I almost forgot them at Grandma's, Mom said they were destined to be forgotten. Sure enough, we forgot to bring them with us. Of course, dessert was included in the meal, so we wouldn't have eaten them anyway. We partook the following week. It was a little dry, but all things considered, not bad. We could still figure out what flavors they were, which is a better fate than some anniversary wedding cake bits!
