Bridal World: Not a Piece of Cake

January 17, 2008 at 3:35pm

I am not getting married, but my friend is in October. So, with the promise of samples of wedding cake, she convinced me to go with her to the Brides World 2008 bridal show at the Convention Center. And since I'd never been to one, I figured, why not?

Well, there was no cake. Not even a bakery was represented. Plenty of caterers, but only one served us food: meatballs and cookies. After the first few sales pitches my friend asked if I could please not let anyone else talk to her. She's much too polite. Except when she screamed out that remark about the cute little groom model's back side.

Not all the women models were toothpicks -- says it all.

There was this one neat thing I found, though. Tea flowers are tea leaves sewn up into a ball,�and when water is poured over�it, it�blooms into a "flower". It looks really cool in clear glass teapots and you can even drink it. You can also design your own tea bags for wedding favors.
