Describe your favorite food

My sweet tooth is calling out to my favorite food delicious, moist, chocolate cake. I love chocolate cake without the icing for may reasons.  First, it is moist and fluffy, next when I eat it my stomach does not hurt nor does it make me sick like ice cream.  Although, I secretly love chocolate ice cream and wish I could eat dairy.  I really don't think I would get sick of having chocolate cake every day if possible.  That should be a rule that no matter what chocolate cake needs  It might be a sweet tooth's dream come true!  


My Haiku to Chocolate Cake!
Hello Chocolate Cake
Moist, fluffy, delicious, yum
Give me the last crumb

My Haiku writing is a little out of practice.  That haiku sounds like something one of my 4th graders would have written.

Yesterday my neighbors got married two yards over on their back deck in the early afternoon on a summer cool but beautiful Saturday.  I couldn't help but watch and listen from my garden while I was weeding.  The entire thing from a spectators point of view seemed to have what so many big weddings are missing.  Everyone was relaxed, kind, attentive, and non-judgmental.  I watched them set up the festivities too, because I worked in my garden all day that day.

What no one would have known is that my neighbors are a lesbian couple and it was the Gay Pride Weekend. (I think)  I have know idea if their marriage was official but to them and in their eyes it was.  They also seemed to be sharing it with friends and family.  It made me really start to think: Who has the right to tell you who you can or cannot fall in love with or marry?  Yes, for years I have believed in societal rules of, oh he's to young, or he's to old for you. Yes, I understand the importance of age, money, honesty, and loyalty, but sometimes things are out of our control no matter how much we try to micromanage them. The heart wants what the heart wants.
