So the engagement party is this Saturday and I need to organise a cake and balloons for the party decorations. What is a typical engagement cake? I keep finding pictures of cakes covered in love hearts. They are all kind of boring to look at and so girly. I don't get why they are so girly - and the cakes all seem so silly.

I really like the idea of having a bride's cake and groom cake, which is a very American thing to do for a wedding. Two cakes may be over kill - but I like the idea of the man being represented because after all, it's his wedding too. I don't think men like flowers, pearls, ribbons, bows, love hearts and other girly things on their cakes. It wouldn't surprised me if most men didn't even give a shit about the look of their wedding cake.

I think that I want something simple and yummy for a engagement cake since my wedding cake is going to be kinda geeky. I have so many ideas running in my head that I wish that I could just do everything - except it would be the most expensive wedding ever.  I think it's time I came up with a date for the wedding. Getting sick of telling people that I don't know.
Meanwhile I've been reading the latest sookie stackhouse book and I'm loving it. After I read this I'm going to start reading game of thrones ;) god i love that show.
