19 August = 1 Year Anniversary! (Pentax-Related...)

Heie · 08-19-2014, 05:59 PM - **4 Likes**

And in that year I've learned that I need to observe and learn about my wife as much as she has about me. Either that or I'm just really that easy

Either way, I came home from work today, had a really big BBQ (too much work going on to justify getting all dolled up and going out to a nice dinner, and not to mention my in-laws were in town), and after dinner, I am greeted with this for dessert:

Also, other than the camera body itself, anyone else notice the attention to detail with this resemblance:

Also, all you die-harders would be proud to see such a brazenly bold Pentax Green Ring

Did I marry the perfect woman, or what?

P.S...for those curious, we started at the lens, and it was delicious. Marzipan, to be exact

Happy Anniversary and congrats to you both.

First I was confused. At the first glance, my thought was something like ''this Heie guy did it again, he try to see if his camera resists to a barbeque''

Happy anniversary. Yesterday was our 25th, so here's to the 19th!

As for your cake, shouldn't it say Ricoh on the back? (LOL) that is so cool, though!

Anniversary advice from an OM - change the interrogatory to the declarative. "I married the perfect woman!"

Congratulations you two! Well hit on the cake!

Awesome!!!!
So with such attention to detail...what does it say on the back of the camera?
It says Pentax on the front, why can't we have our cake and eat it too?

Congrats!!!!

<homer voice> Mmmmm.... marzipan lens!</homer voice>

Very cool, and very creative! Props to both of you.

BTW, I'm pretty sure eating the lens defeats the weather sealing...

Well, I guess that answers the question of whether the camera survived!

But, seriously, congrats, you guys!
