Food Tasting

It's the most wonderful time of the year... No, I'm not talking about Christmas, but the food tasting for Tres LA that took place on Dec.1, 2009. What's Tres LA you may ask? It's the catering company that Bianca and I have decided to go with for the wedding.

The night started with appetizers (personally my favorite part of the night). We tried things from mini Angus sliders to corncake w/ salmon sprinkles. Very fancy I know. Some of these thing were delish some were a little too weird for my taste. However, we promise to select great appetizers for the reception.

We tried salads, entrees, and lots of wine. It was a very good time and once we make our final decisions on the foods I'm sure you (if you're lucky enough to receive a coupon at the church to get into the reception) will have a fun, yummy time.

The only thing I'm worried about is that by the time Bianca and I make it to the wedding, all the appetizers will be gone (you heffers). I need to designate someone to save me some. Any volunteers?

PS: I'm rooting for the Angus beef sliders. (they were del)

Shedding pounds with a stinky frown

My heart's racing. I've been jogging for 10 minutes and am sweating pretty profusely. "Gotta lose some weight, gotta lose some weight." I keep telling myself over and over again. My breathing patterns have gone out the window and I am struggling for air, wheezing in and out. Then it happens. Like in a cartoon, an aroma of a smell makes it's way to me. A cloud of flatulence flood my next breath. I am literally drowning in someone's fart and can taste it on my tongue.
I look to my right, no one there. I look to my left, jack pot. It's a big black lady who looks right back at me, and gives me the, "um huh" grunt. I give her a disgusted look and she acts like nothing happens and keeps on walking. I quit my run, because I' m tired and running is a lot harder when you're holding your breath. I say "that's nasty quietly, but loud enough for her to hear me" and walk towards the bicycle machine. Thank you black lady, thank you for making me cut my jog short.

Don't you hate that? Has this ever happened to you. There should be a no fart rule placed at all gyms. Especially in the cardio section. If you fart while doing sit-ups so be it (I'm guilty of this all the time), but while running, gross. I can still taste it in my mouth.

Yuck, gonna go brush my teeth now.

Story of Us Part III

As they approached a house that was located four houses down from Danger’s they saw a yellow fire hydrant in the front. “This has to be it!” They all proclaimed. There was music playing inside the house and the lights were on throughout. “Alright, I’ll ring the doorbell. Benny you do the talking.” Danger commanded like a drill instructor in the Marines. They approached the door and Danger rang the doorbell. In what felt like a blink of an eye, two girls answered the door.

“Hi.” One said at the door as the other stood there with a thoughtless smile on her face. The girl who answered the door had long brown hair, and was wearing glasses. She smiled as she waited for a response from the guys and as she smiled the whole night lit up.

“Hey” Danger finally greeted coming back from the slow motion flash forward he had about their future together. “I’m Danny. I live four houses down.”

“I’m Bianca and this is Paola, come in. We have a few friends over and we’re just hanging out listening to music.” said the angel that answered the front door.

“Ok. Cool. We’ll come in in a second.” Danger answered. The guys huddled in the front and all came to a consensus that these girls were beautiful. “I call Bianca” Danger called out to the group as they all frowned. “Fine, I got Paola.” Benny quickly replied as the others were left without a chance to even open their mouths. “It’s ok guys, we’ll play it out and see what happens.” Danger suggested to the group knowing in his heart that he just met the girl of his dreams and that none of them had any real shot at her. Danger could already envision the Dawson’s Creek like relationship in his head and his heart was pounding through his chest. They all agreed to “play it out” and walked in.

Yummy Menu, Beautiful Venue

Remember in The Mask when Jim Carey eats the bomb and then says, "That's a spicy meatball?" Do you remember in Prom Night when the girl and guy dance at the end after escaping from the murderer (ok neither do I , that movie looked stupid), Do you remember all the adorable dogs from Hotel for Dogs (I don't know this one either)? In Hook Grandma Wendy is honored while Peter's children are being kidnapped (everyone remembers this movie). Well all these scenes took place at the Park Plaza of Los Angeles which just so happens to be where Bianca and I are going to have our reception.

Yes, we are going to be having a red carpet event with live coverage on E. Make sure to know who made your dress or suit so that you don't look like a fool when the question is asked. We are looking forward to a good time at the Park Plaza, so remember to get your ticket stamped at the ceremony in ordre to make it to the dinner. We're excited and it's officially booked!

The Story of Us Part II

Part 2
They set forth through the pitch black night walking hurriedly to the house Danger assumed he had to be right. “I’ve seen a girl at this corner house, but it’s not four houses down. Maybe these girls just don’t know how to count” Danger told the group. The group chuckled like giddy school girls, because they were worked up about meeting new girls from their cross town rival school. “Ok guys, hold it together. We need to look cool for these girls.” Danger said in an arrogant tone while wearing his Letterman Jacket.
They arrived promptly at the corner and noticed that all the lights in the house were off. “That’s weird.” Sean said. “Are you sure this is it?”
“Yeah, I’m telling you I saw a girl here before.” Danger answered.
“Where’s the fire hydrant?” Benny questioned.
“Umm. I don’t know. It’s dark; we probably just don’t see it.” Danger replied not sounding as confident as before. They huddled together and all appeared fearful of ringing the doorbell. “Stop being wusses, let’s do this already.”
Danger lead the group straight to the front door. He rang the doorbell and waited. Nothing. He rang the doorbell again. Nothing. Then as they were turning away, “What do you want?” an old man wheezed from a crack in the door. He was wearing a bath robe and as he opened the door a strong smell of smoke and old people (bengay, medicine, and cat pee) escaped through. “Umm. Is your daughter home?” Danger muttered to the old man, losing any bit of confidence he had at the beginning of their walk and trying not to breathe.
“My daughter? I don’t have a daughter. Now get out of here, before I grab my gun!” The old man shouted. Old people tend to get upset about nothing very often. The boys sped off without even looking back trying to forget the old people smell that engulfed them at the door.
“What the hell!” Benny screamed as the boys ran farther away from the house. “Stinky, I’m going to kill you.”
Stinky whined, “I swear guys they wanted to meet us. I don’t know what happened.”
They looked at each other and finally Benny said what they were all thinking, “Maybe, they tricked us. There aren’t any girls.” The guys walked away with their heads down. They walked slowly down the street and felt the cold of the night stinging away at their skin.
“Well there wasn’t a hydrant and this was more than four houses down. Maybe it was the wrong house.” Sean thought out loud.
Danger replied, “You could be right, but then where would they be?”
“Let’s try the other corner.” Benny said. The gang got excited again and made their way in the other direction towards the other corner.

Part III coming soon...

The Story of US

The Story of Us
Part 1
Well our story starts off a very long time ago (Hey, we have been dating for 8 years).Sometime in December of the year 2000 there was a young strapping boy named Danger who set out on an adventure that would lead him to find the love of his life. He didn’t know that’s what he was to expect, but love has a funny way of showing up when you least expect it.
One Friday night, Danger was home watching tv when his annoying dark friend Stinky showed up at his door. “Whazzzzuuuuppppp!” he shouted like a struggling walrus glued to a desk chair. (By the way, Whazzuupp was way past its cool period.)
“What’s up Stinky” Danger responded nonchalantly, still paying attention to the television program.
“Do I have some news for you!” Stinky shouted this time making sure to get the attention of Danger by turning off his show.
“What is it?” Danger replied annoyed.
“Well I was on aol instant messenger (AIM) and was pretending to be you, and some girls from Downey know who you are and think you’re hot.”
“Yeah, so what’s new?”
“What’s new is that one of these girls lives right by you. Four houses down!”
Danger instantly envisioned a girl he thought he saw one time down the street from his house. Could this be the mystery girl? Had he finally solved the enigma of the girl down the street by Stinky acting like a “To Catch a Predator” felon and thwarting them into giving him their information? Danger had to find out.
The first thing any normal teen would do is round up his posse so that they can share this discovery with him. Since Stinky was already over, Danger decided to call up Sean and Benny. Great teams always come in 4’s. There are the four hobbits from Lord of the Rings, the Fab Four (greatest band ever), the Fantastic Four, and on this day “The Four Boys from Four Houses Down”. The girls told Stinky that the house was at the corner and had a fire hydrant in front. This was enough for them to set out on their journey.

Part 2 Coming Soon…

Church has been booked officially

So what's the prettiest church you've ever been to? Well guess what that's all going to change come Nov. 7, 2010. Yes, that is our official date of our wedding at our official church which is located on the Loyola Marymount campus (where Bianca received her Master's and is currently receiving her credential from). I believe the ceremony will begin at 4:00pm and should last about an hour. If you don't come to the church portion of the wedding, don't bother coming to the reception. Only emergencies with a doctor's note will be permitted into the reception without attending the church. We will be monitoring this by handing out tokens at the ceremony, and having the priest punch a hole in the token with a symbol only he has the authority to punch in. Okay, you caught me I'm kidding, but it would be very important to Bianca and I if you attend the ceremony. We want a full church so we can mack it up in front of everyone.

Bienvenidos

Thank you for visiting Danny and Bianca's blog. This blog has been created so that everyone can be updated with what is going on for our wedding. I will be creating a new post at least once a week so be sure to check it often.
