John's Fiancée Beth

Tempus fugit, eh? Just a few short years ago I was of the age where boys swear off girls and vow never to marry or do anything icky like kiss one. Yet here I stand today, recently engaged.

I met Beth on June 21, 2002 at a dessert party thrown by my friends Matt and Mindy. Having attended one of their previous parties and always happy both to cook and to sample others' culinary creations, I prepared raspberry and chocolate tartlets, a confection of fresh raspberry-creme filled chocolate cups.
