Wedding Blog

I know what you’re thinking. This is just a blog; it isn’t a confessional.

No worries. I’ve been soap opera free for, oh, two years now. I don’t need a 12-step program at the moment. (Well, at least not for soap operas...)

But back when I was a 10-year-old soap opera addict, I made a very resolute decision about my wedding. I decided that I wanted to walk down the aisle to Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring.

Mr. Quiche and I are such “music” people, that I don’t trust leaving the song decisions up to a Jamaican DJ. We don’t want the same old song and dance (Electric Slide, Shout!, you get the point…).
