For the 2 very special couples, whose engagement parties I had the privilege of attending this weekend. A thank you written in food pairings. Inspired by you. Because everyone who knows you, absolutely everyone who knows you, will agree - you are mac n cheese meant to be together, fries and ketchup meant to be together, hella meant to be together, fa sheezy meant to be together, bagels and cream cheese meant to be together, chips and dips meant to be together. In 2 words ...and plain talk, perfectly paired!

P.S. Hella? Fa sheezy? For those curious...
