Weddingbee

Czesc hive! I am thrilled to be the newest bee, Miss Avocado. I think when I got “the email” Mr. Avocado thought something terrible had happened. I was shaking and I just kept saying “Oh my, oh my.” Mr. Avocado has labeled me as an extrovert who would run around naked if possible, so displaying my every wedding related action for the world to see is pretty much the best thing ever.

Before we begin there is one thing we should clear up. I’m currently still waiting for an official proposal. Miss Avocado is my name, but you can also call me “The Ring-less Bride.” (But I am not, repeat, not groom-less.)

I’m assuming you would like to start by learning a little bit about this particular variety of Avocado. I grew up in a tiny farming town in Central Washington while on the other side of the world my future husband was unsuspectingly mushroom hunting his way around Poland.

One day I asked him to this little “prom” we were having and told him we either had to start dating or stop spending so much time together. He didn’t answer me for three weeks. But that’s another story for another post!

The night of the prom.

Mr. Avocado and I are the classic example of opposites attracting. He is the introvert I am the extrovert. His thrifty self helped me change my habits to pay off my debt when we first started dating. He once had a steady diet of Snickers and fast food, but I quickly taught him the meaning of the words saturated fat.

We have so much to learn from each other but we have more than enough in common to keep ourselves entertained. His introverted self has also sacrificed much allowing me to apply for Weddingbee knowing that it would mean his face would be plastered all over the internet for thousands of people to see. I love him so much for being willing to compromise!

Why Avocado? Mr. Avocado wanted something tough, like “Miss Ninja.” Since that wasn’t an option I decided to go with Avocado. When we were first dating and Mr. Avocado was trying to eat healthier and he did not understand how I could be putting avocados on everything. He had looked it up, and they were full of fat. Wasn’t fat the very thing I was trying to avoid? He has since come a long way, and eating healthy has become a way of life for us, with plenty of room for all the avocados we can handle.

I hope you’re craving more of my rich and creamy goodness. There is a lot more of Miss Avocado coming your way as I attempt to wrap up all of my loose ends before our wedding, happening roughly 100 days from now!
