Rapping Salmonella Man

Now that we've eaten part of the cake, it looks like some sort of superhero emblem.

I guess it would be more of a villain. The comic that never was:

He's rapping right now about how we can't get married.
Because we have salmonella.
He's real happy about that.
(You can tell he's rapping by the hands.)

It didn't sell very well.

Happy Salmonella Day!

Sixteen years ago today, we wanted to get married, but couldn't stand up, either of us, because we had Salmonella, and the wedding was cancelled! And then rescheduled for the next day, so tomorrow is our anniversary. Every year since, I like to celebrate Salmonella Day with a cake. We've had some nice cakes in the past, too. 

This year, we're having a lemon cake with creamed cheese frosting. (When life gives you lemons, make lemon cake.)

I made it myself. (Bet you couldn't even tell!) The eggs are cooked very, very well in the salmonella cake, as always.

HAPPY SALMONELLA DAY, EVERYONE! 

Happy Salmonella Day!

Fifteen years ago today, we didn't get married because we both got Salmonella food poisoning on the day we had planned to get married.

I remember it clearly, us laying side by side on that mattress on the floor, and him trying to grab my clammy hand, but half missing it because of the effects of dehydration, so his sweaty palm was sort of barely touching mine, and he said,

"If we survive this, do you still want to get married?"

It was the most romantic moment of my life. I said "yes" and turned to the side and vomited into a bowl.

Hard to believe it's been fifteen years. This year, we're doing cheesecake:


We've had some good cakes in the past, too:

Happy Salmonella Day!

It was eleven years ago today that BAH and I had to cancel our wedding because we both got food poisoning. Traditionally, I bake a cake. This year, I bought one. Isn't it beautiful?
