THE WEDDING CAKE


He Takes The Cake   
           by Vicki Penzell  
       
  A woman's guide to find love once again! This time around, you can have your piece 
of cake and romance too! 

  Before there was the Internet people met their mate in the conventional way. You could 
meet by chance on the street, in a  bar, coffee shop, or the library, or  someone would 
set you up with a friend. Then there’s Aunt Harriet’s, neighbor’s son, and don’t forget t
the dentist’s nephew. The  blind date has always been very popular, and I guess in 
some ways it still is. Similar to the traditional blind date, you take chances when
you date someone online. 

  Arranged marriages from years ago often increased your risk of finding unhappy 
dates. Your family would match you with someone from a nearby village and parents 
would bargain for your hand in marriage. Some villagers made off better than others.  
Cows, chickens, and other valuables were exchanged before for the two young  
adults would walk down the aisle, not knowing if they would really like each other, let 
alone fall in love. Some marriages were successful, but many lived unhappily. 
 
  Thank goodness we have moved into a new world with so many new opportunities  
to discover relationships on our own terms. Welcome to Internet Dating 101.  
This my version of dating for dummies.   
 
  I could eat dessert for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. As a little girl, I remember  
going to the bakery with my mom and smiling all the way home thanks to the  
aroma of baked delights in the boxed tied with red and white string. Life always  
seemed better with sweets. A cookie and milk was all it took to put a smile on my  
face. One day it occurred to me that every person has a trait that resembles some part  
of a dessert. My next door neighbor reminded me of a Devil dog which was a Drakes 
Cake found at the supermarket.  He was very mischievous and loved to play in the dirt. 
There was also a boy who always ate Moon Pies at lunch, and after a while his face 
looked round like the moon.
