Another Celebration

November is such an important month for me and Andrew. It’s the busiest of the year... celebrating us getting older.... :)

After celebrating our birthdays few days ago, its time for another one,... Wedding Anniversary! Yes,…it’s been a year! I still remember all the tense, the stress, the sweet, and happy moments on the same day last year. Time has flies.. so quick! It also been a wonderful year with lot of love, fun and happiness, as well as a challenging year for us. Moving out, moving in, journey, trip, changes, etc. May I call this first as a time for us to settle in, to adjust to each other, to get to know each other better, to accept each other’s weaknesses, enjoyed each other companion and take pleasure in each other strength. Would be a lie if I said we never have our head bumped to each other. But I think we've made it good so far, hey?

Last year will become precious memories as we’ve made it together. Wish to have many wonderful years ahead and some more adventures together in the future.

Oh,.. and it is the time to enjoy the wedding cake, (again)! We had 3 storey wedding cake on our wedding. It's an old tradition of saving a piece of wedding cake, which that some couples, including us still hold to today. The custom is said that it was a sign of wealth for a couple to freeze the top portion of their wedding cake, thaw it out and eat it on their first anniversary. So that we kept the top portion of our wedding cake all these time. It was placed in a sealed box and been travelling with us all along. I dont know how it managed, but it survived during the movement and has been stored in the freezer most of the time. Here is the pic. I took it today. Some of the flowers were broken, but it still look lovely, isn't it?



Felt sooo bad to take all the decoration and icing. But I have to! I don't think the cake can wait any longer. It is a fruit cake, and has lot of rum, which could be a good preservative. Most cakes don't freeze well for long periods of time, but this one has been prepared with a freezer-safe layer that will last the year in the freezer. It might be still in a good condition, or might be not. Anyhoo, I finally managed to cut it. See the pic... By the look and smell of it, i think it's still eatable :) And we ate it. No tummy ache, and still Yum!. Who want some ??
