“I didn’t plan this out, it just happened and it was so glaringly obvious that I couldn’t have stopped it if I wanted to,” Goldman wrote on April 3. “I asked her to marry me. She said yes. I cannot imagine a state of happiness that is more intense than whatever I’m feeling right now. My heart just might burst. I love you muffin.”

An Unexpected Ring Choice
Goldman’s words are so sweet, but what’s up with the ring made of string?
“I’m sorry I didn’t have a real ring,” Goldman wrote. “I hope you don’t mind butcher’s twine, I am a chef, after all.”
How romantic! Colbry then shared them same photo, along with her own announcement, on Instagram, writing, “Officially my ride or die. My forever muffin. My buffalo. I’m so crazy about you @duffgoldman and I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life going on adventures with you! 😊 hnnnnggg”

I don’t know who’s going to make the wedding cake, but that will be a lot of pressure for some lucky baker! Congratulations to the happy couple.
