She turned to him, offering the first piece on a yellow china plate. 'You're my heart, and there is no sweeter feeling than the love we share. Not even this cake. Wait, that might be overstating it. Everyone, be sure you taste this cake. It's one of Isabel's best recipes.","author":"Susan Wiggs","tags":["appetizers","champagne","cocktail","honey","speech","tess-and-dominic","wedding-banquet","wedding-cake"],"id":224804,"author_id":"Susan+Wiggs"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":16,"pages":2,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
