Wedding preparations
Eliana and I are happy about the progress in our wedding preparations. Like I've said in a previous post, Elianas dress is being made. A pastor from Miami (a long time friend of Eliana and her family) is coming for our wedding, and will be marrying us. We now have a place for our reception, and is about 20 minutes from the church. Elianas cousin is a chef, and him and some others will be cooking the dinner at our reception. I am really excited for our wedding, and wishing for the day to finally arrive. Eliana and I were talking about wedding traditions. We were talking about how people throw rice, and that is also a tradition in Peru. But I told her that the people should throw something else, because birds eat the rice, and the rice expands in their stomach, and kills them. That was a surprise for Eliana, and then I read about it on the internet, and it turns out to be just a myth. So they can throw all the rice they want, and the birds can then fill their stomachs without worry. And as long as they are tossing the rice at me, I might as well open my mouth, and hope for a well aimed throw.

When I read your last line, I thought I would make sure to help get some of that rice into your mouth. Then I remembered what my aim is like when I do throw anything. Who knows who it will hit!!
Oh yes, I did astonished when Tim also I speak on when the spouses give a little cake the one to the other, and that soon they put the cake in the face, I think that that is a very terrible tradition and got to imagine to me on the cake in my face and really nondesire for that reason, luckyly the cake of our marriage will not be of cream, will be of a special mass:) and then Tim will not be able to put a little cake in my face:) and I am very glad to the knowledge that I will not have a little cake in my face. :)
Hmmmm, I don't think the rice will be cooked, Tim. It might be a little bit crunchy.
Eliana, I agree, its a stupid tradition. Really stupid.
crunchy or not, its edible. I did not hear Paul complaining when he ate the uncooked macaronni.
