I’m always surprised what pops up when I type the number in the search box. This week the surprise was an old photo of my sister’s wedding. My youngest sister and I were the matrons of honour and our parents were standing behind us.

Thursday Throwback – Three Weddings

Posted on March 12, 2026 by Mama Cormier

This year two of my three children have and will be celebrating their 10th wedding anniversaries and one celebrates 15 years of marriage. All three were very happy days and full of wonderful memories.

9/10/11

Our youngest daughter was married first and her anniversary date is always easy to remember. She and her now husband were married on September (9th month) on the 10th day in 2011. It was a beautiful late summer day and the outdoor wedding took place in a vineyard.

In 2016, our remaining two children decided to tie the knot. Andrea and Josie were married on their 10th anniversary of their first date, February 10th. It was a small wedding with family and close friends. They were married at City Hall and had the reception in a lovely Italian restaurant.

Five months later our son, Brendan and his beautiful wife, Azadeh were married in Assisi, Italy. The destination was chosen because it was the one place that all the families could attend without any visa restrictions. Also Brendan and Azadeh had a connection with the owner of the resort and they were able to book the entire place just for their guests. It was a magical place and a wedding that we won’t soon forget.

What is it about feeding people that gives us so much joy? Food in our family is a way of caring for the well being of our loved ones and expressing love. My husband loves to cook. It gives him a great deal of satisfaction and enjoyment. We are so lucky to be able to feed ourselves and family every day and not worry about where are next meal comes from. Yes we complain about the price of food these days but for most of us we are still able to put food on the table. Sometimes we have to get creative to stretch the dollar but I still fondly remember some of the comfort food we prepared at university. Chicken livers and peppers over rice was a staple along side macaroni and cheese, spaghetti and meat sauce (from a jar), grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup, homemade chilli and eggs and toast.
