My husband and I have been married for nine years. Marriage is interesting growing up you believe in the tv/ movie version...trips to exotic locales, two kids perfectly clean and well behaved, family dinners on the table every night...you know the drill. Then there is reality. Yes my husband and I both have successful careers, we have an amazing daughter who lights up our life on a daily basis but in the past nine years we have had two parents battle and beat cancer cancer, our daughter has been diagnosed with Autism, we both have been committed our careers---we have had a lot piled on our plates that has been our doing. Before we knew it we quickly realized we were becoming yes men and losing track of what allowed us to accomplish everything- each other. Who do we say no to- our daughter, our spouse, our daughters school or her therapies, our work- it took us a long time to learn to prioritize what is truly important. We are still working on it.
My husband and I are the perfect match- like a great Cabernet and chocolate, the Masters in April, Brie and french bread, Mac and cheese! One is always made better by the other. To celebrate our 9th anniversary we renewed our vows. This was the one of the most nerve racking cakes I have ever made- partly because it was an expression of my love for my husband, but it was really artistic. My husband truly is the cheese to my Mac- we make the perfect macaroni and cheese.
The cake was delicious. Chocolate chi pound cake with bittersweet Buttercream. I only wish we could have eaten more of it. Here is to many more years to the perfect pair!
