Congrats, you kids!

As far as other doper couples, I think **UncleBeer** kinda likes me. He sure has been at my house a lot the last few months, anyway. We met at my very first ChiDope over a year and a half ago, but didn’t get together until this year.

Sniff sniff. I’m so happy for you! Congratulations!

p.s. **Javamaven** , do you still have your hot foods notes? I’m having a heckuva time in that class! (now known as International Cuisine) 😃

Java, you’re right. I have found a lovely girl through the boards 😃

Phillipino slap fight? Dude, you are son **on**!

I know I’m going to get slapped for this, but I have to ask…

you going to make your own wedding cake, save a fortune I’m sure.

:smack:

**Heloise** … I thought you weren’t supposed to ask for homework help on the boards!😉

Of course I still have my notes. Want to borrow my notebook?

You and **Coldie** should stop by the restaurant while he’s in town.  
**Narile** , I’ve thought about doing my wedding cake. We’re having a seperate reception the weekend after the ceremony, and it’s possible. Only problem is, I really don’t have all the equipment necessary to do one properly, which means I’d have to go through all the trouble of buying the things I need… I’d probably end up only saving a few dollars in the long run.

But I’ll probably be doing plenty of cooking otherwise.

In all the confusion around here the past couple of days, I haven’t been in to say my Congratulations.

Congratulations! You two are two of my favourite people, and I’m very glad this has come to pass.

pssst Java - I have some stuff you might wanna use.

Thank you, sweetie!

You have been away far too long. You’ve been missed.

It’s good to be back! I finally have a notebook, and my PDA does email. So I will try to be on at least once a week. I really did miss y’all…
