According to Glamour Magazine, there is a specific roasted chicken recipe that, well, helps you get engaged! It all started when an editor at the magazine gave the recipe to an assistant who made the delicious dish for her boyfriend. Within a month, she was engaged! As the recipe was passed around from assistant to assistant, the weddings had been sparked!
Could it be too good to be true? The magazine claims that over 26 engagements (that they know about) relate back to a certain chicken dish that was made in the not-so-distant past. And just this very montha Glamour writer for the popular blog "Smitten" got engaged post-chicken roasting.
So while all of our OurWeddingDay.com brides may already be engaged (congratulations by the way!) surely there are friends out there in relationships who also want to get engaged. And who enjoy roast chicken.
You can find the Engagement Chicken recipe here. Pass it around... and let us test it for ourselves to see if the myth is true. I think I'll be making this dish myself in the next coming weeks!

Is there a language barrier between you and your groom-to-be? Lucky you!
Jag Carrao just posted and interesting article over at The Huffington Post, "Surprising Advantages of Dating Someone You Can't Understand." Citing doctors, relationship counselors and even Sean Connery (who credits his 30 year marriage to often not understanding his French wife), Carrao thinks the argument has merit and even provides a half-serious list of its benefits:
No man-terrifying “relationship talks.”
Fewer heated debates about stem cell research and Oscar predictions.
Less ambiguity about date logistics (aware of the language barrier, he nails down date/time/place to avoid any misunderstanding).
Exotic charm of endearments uttered in a foreign tongue.
And most importantly: less conversation, more kissing.
Of course, she also details the obvious drawbacks to not understanding your spouse... but those aren't as funny! Check out the full article here!
