Groom cake of the week 7/21/10

Turtle Power. Cowabunga dude. This awesome TMNT reminds me growing up in the 80's/90's. Which is why this cake was selected for cake of the week


FYI - The purpose if posting a groom cake of the week is not to promote vendors but to promote ideas of groom cakes for any potential future groom.

A year from tomorrow I’m getting married

Well it’s official. My unmarried day remains 365 nights from today. June 18th, 2011 I will be married to my wonderful fiancée. Our lives will be forever changed. We are in great shape right now for our wedding. All of our vendors are booked. Our Hall/hotel has been booked. Our photo, video, flowers and bakery for wedding cake have all been booked. Everyone likes to ask me how our wedding planning coming along is. I do have to admit its been an easy process. As long as you book everything right away once you’re engaged you’re allowing yourself plenty of free time. Which is why I’m able to blog about ideas and other stuff in this blog…lol

154lbs as of Today

After being engaged for a month both my fiancée and I decided we need to get in shape for our wedding. We didn’t want to start 3 months or 6 months or even a year before our wedding to get into shape. We have committed ourselves to better healthy life. We plan to stick to this commitment far into our long marriage. Nov 15th 2009. I was 168lbs. I’m happy as of today June 16th that I’m now 154lbs. That’s 14lbs lost (.5lbs per week)

My first step of losing weight was to hire a personal trainer. We needed to learn how to properly workout. For 5 months until I felt conformable I’ve worked out with the trainer twice a week. Each session he gave us wonderful diet tips. After our engagement party two months ago I promised to join a gym. Now I work out 4 days a week. I really enjoy making my health and exercise a top priority.
My diet consists of the following:

1) No soda or carbonated beverages.
2) Drink plenty of water.
3) No bread. Once a week if you have a piece it’s not going to hurt you
4) Pasta became wheat pasta
5) If you do eat bread have wheat bread
6) White rice became brown rice
7) Eating 3x a day (healthy breakfast, Healthy lunch and healthy dinner.
8) Avoid sweets (Cookies, Cakes, donuts and anything packed with sugar)
If you do have any sweets make sure its for the right occasion
9) Eat your veggies

My workout’s consist of the following:
Day 1 – Chest, Back, Traps
Day 2 – Legs
Day 3 – Arms and shoulders
Day 4 – ABS
You also want to throw in two days of cardio.

Ed Hardy White wine

During this past weekend we decided to hang out at a friend’s house. Its proper manners to bring something over when going over someone’s house regardless of the occasion. My friend was having a bad day so I’ve asked if she would prefer either some beer or wine for us to bring over. I’ve provided the option. I’m a good person for that. Since my friend suggested that she prefers white wine over beer. I’ve decided to go visit a near by liquor/wine store. I was shocked when I’ve seen a bottle of white wine with the Ed Hardy logo over it. So I’ve decided to be adventurous and try it out. It was pretty good. I was also informed from the counter guy that Ed Hardy makes not only a white wine but also a Red wine and vodka. So if you want to add Ed Hardy to your wedding for beverages that I suggest you should give them a tasting

Sports team toasters

While shopping with my finance this past weekend I’ve came across this awesome MLB team logo toaster. It imprints your favorite team logo on the toast. How awesome is that? This could make a nice gift for your grooms or something to add to a bridal registry when our future bride is not looking. Cough…cough. They also make Team logo toasters for football, Hockey and basketball. Two friends recently bought homes and for a house warming gift I’ve bought one for a Yankees fan and another for a Boston Red Sox fan. It was really painful to order the Red Sox one. But I still managed to do so.

Check out www.pangeabrands.com to learn more about the sports team toasters. I'm sure any sports nut you know would like this gift

Grooms cake of the week (6/7/10)

Hey All,

I've decided to add for a new feature of this blog is to post groom's cake of the week. Every Monday a new cake will be posted.

I found this while searching on google "Groom's cakes". Why did I decide to make a Nintendo controller the first cake you ask? Anyone born the late 70’s/80’s played Nintendo and its part of my childhood. Plenty of hours were spent with this controller.

If you would like to submit a cake for next week. Email us at groomwars@gmail.com

My fantasy groom’s wedding ring

I know plenty of us guys out there are into Sports. I’m talking about real Man sports. You know the one’s that include a ball like for example: Baseball, football, basketball and soccer. The 2009 Yankees World series ring is amazing. You would have to be either a player or an employee of the Yankees to be entitled to owning it. I’d choose that ring to wear over any wedding ring. I’m sure when Derek Jeter get married later on this year that he would most likely wear an actual wedding band. However nothing could compare to his current collect of 5 World Series rings. However the 2009 World Series ring I think is the best championship ring out of any sport out there. This past week I was able to see the 2009 World Series ring in person. I’ve taken a picture of the ring and compared it to my actual (groom’s engagement ring that my finance gave me). The Yankees World Series ring is very impressive. If I had to choose any fantasy wedding ring to wear it would surely be this one.

I’ve attending our first wedding of the year:

So wedding season has officially started for us as of Memorial Day weekend. So far we have been invited to 4 weddings this year. The first wedding we attending was a beach theme wedding. The wedding took place on the Jersey shore. There was fist pumping going on...lol. The wedding was for my best friend’s sister. She looked amazing. The weather was amazing. The ceremony was outdoors as well as the cocktail hour. The reception was indoors. I also really enjoyed my Chilean Sea bass entrée.

One wedding down. 3 more to attend this year.
