Although we had planned to get married in New Hampshire, I wanted to add a touch of home from the state of Kansas where I grew up, to our wedding.
My fiancee, explained this to a friend, and told him that we were planning to have wheat rather than rice thrown after the ceremony.
Our friend thought for a moment. Then he said solemnly, “It’s a good thing she’s not from Idaho.”

Good thing she wasn’t from Hawaii, either. Pineapples can get pretty big.
