ABC, Easy As 123...

This meme's been floating around. Since most of my sixth period class released themselves on their own recognicance, I thought I'd do it.

A- Available or Single – Happily married.

B- Best Friends - Andreas and Jim

C- Cake or Pie – I can't have either since finding I have Celiac Disease (a genetic allergy to wheat) but when I could, I loved pecan pie. My mother used to make me those instead of birthday cakes.

My wife had two cakes made for our wedding-- one a flourless chocolate cake, with strawberries for me, bless her heart, and another without strawberries for my son.
