Today is the magical one year anniversary. Totally awesome. Ryan and I stayed in Chicago on Friday night (yesssssss) cause he had a CE course to be at all day Saturday in that hotel. (noooooo) actually it was really fun. I just drove myself home in the morning, and he stayed there with the 4 other hygiene ladies and Neal for a class. Neal and Ry left early cause Neal's in charge- and probably cause they learned everything they needed to know =) and I drove down to Neal and Trish's house to hang out for the eve with their family and chat...then had some chinese food with Ry's parents, and back home to watch the Huskers get rocked. Actually, Ry watched the Huskers and I watched Susie teach me how to make apple pie. Today was church, chillin in the afternoon with my man, and then our small group tonight for a few hours.... Tomorrow Ry has the day off and we're off to Kalamazoo to the 'big' hospital for some great technology to tell us more about the lil guys...which means another 2 hours laying on my back about to pass out while everyone else watches em twitch all over the screen. =) But hopefully they will give us some info about the boys and a better idea of what to expect in the next 2 months. We shall see....
Aside from that, we had fun today talking about and remembering our wedding...busted out the cake from the freezer....it looks a bit suspicious. I'll explain. Whoever wrapped it up for us (we can't remember) decided it would be nice to freeze the flowers on top too...found that out when we opened it up...
Anyhoo, we found some mysterious blueish colored parts throughout the cake....supposed to be a white cake with rasberry swirly stuff, and that looked good, but we just can't get over the other color that maybe shouldn't be there...?!? What happened?? So it's still in the fridge awaiting our decision to go forth and eat. good thing we saved this awesome cake for a whole freakin year, through the move, taking up 1/2 our freezer space- only to find out that it's sportin some mold. Can mold grow in the freezer?? That's the question of the hour. And it's not like it's just on the top next to where the flowers were, it's like a blueish fun-fetti cake almost. All over the middle. Very strange. So, we are open to suggestions: to eat or not to eat, that is the question. =)

What is absolutely hilarious is the face that the flowers kept their color.
I would... not eat. Ew to blue cake.
UNLESS the raspberry part got hypothermia and turned blue. Which is entirely possible.
In which cake, I would eat and keep on eating.
HAHAHAHAH.
I seriously did not mean to type "in which cake." That was supposed to be "in which case."
Oopsies.
According to http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/oct99/941241450.Mi.r.html, mold does not often grow in the freezer.
Most molds will grow quite well if all conditions are right - at about room temperature. Depending on the species of mold involved, some can grow very well at refrigeration temperatueres. Not many foodborne-molds grow at freezer temperature though. Certain species of molds have heat resistant spores that can survive some cooking processes and then germinate and grow when the food is cooled. These species can be a problem in processed fruit products.
soooooo what we've learned is microwave your cake...if it's cold mold then it will die and is thus safe to eat! -Beef.
Ha, Ha! Our year-old wedding cake didn't have blue spots, but it did have brownish squishy spots all over it. I took a bite or two and spit them out. Josh did the same, but it was still worth the freezer space just to have the memory!
