Kitchens were good places to be. You knew where you were in them.
‘I can be romantic,’ said Todd, folding his arms. ‘Just not stupid. It’s all part of the illusion. The cake. The dress. But when it comes to the vows, they mean Jack shit a few months down the line. The whole wedding probably makes things worse. Spending all that money, focusing on the crappy details, how much you’re going to impress the audience, because that’s what it is, one big show. And
‘Cutting the cake is the first joint act a couple do together once they’re married. It’s a symbol of their unity. Of doing things as a team. Their future together. And that future includes their family as they share the cake among their guests. Feeding their loved ones. Embracing the wider family. There’s so much loveliness about it. It’s not just cake,’
‘show her that she makes my world a brighter place to be in and my life infinitely better for her being in it.’
