Title: Happy Birthday, Shiral!
Post by: Evie on February 05, 2013, 09:18:46 AM
Happy birthday!  I would wish for a bunch of tiny people to move into your miniature houses to bring you extra delight, but if there's anything I've learned in the past year, it's that little people are pretty high maintenance....   ;)  ;D

Hope you have a great year ahead!

Happy, happy birthday, Shiral!  I heard it through the grapevine that certain blond, Deryni Duke is opening a bottle of Fianna wine to celebrate.   ;D

Thanks Evaine and Jerusha!

Spent Sunday Night in San Francisco and yesterday, Mom and I spent money like Ivana Trump, er  "Stimulated the San Francisco Economy" in stores around Union Square. Then came home and had a dinner party at a local French Restaurant.  Today, my actual birthday will be a little less vigorous, but I'll still do some puttering about and amusing myself this afternoon.

Nods sagely at idea of doing such a community service on your birthday - very public spirited of you. :D

Thanks everyone. It was such a fun birthday, I forgot to freak out about how old I am.  ;D

Jerusha, please tell that blonde duke to get his ducal self over to my place with the wine! Aaaaalaaaric.... I'm still WAAAIIITING. No need to wake Richenda.... ;) :D

Shiral, Look who's image I acquired recently.
I bet anything, you have his image too, but here is a fresh look just in case you misplaced it in the move.

Now that's what I call a birthday present!  And I'll bet he's bringing you that slice of birthday cake - you can always count on our Duke of Corwyn.   :D

Thanks, Laurna!  So far it's been a nice  birthday, but it IS just 9:30 in the morning.=o) I am being supervised by Dmitri as I write this. I think he wants an ear scritchie.

Shiral, please continue to have a most Happy Birthday!

I think they are probably gum paste. I have seen some pretty realistic flowers made that way. It's an amazing art form. So yes, feel free to eat the whole thing...except the candles, of course!

It's a little early in my time zone (and therefore in Shiral's time zone because she's several hours behind me), but I'm going to post anyway.  Happiest of birthdays to one of the original Zipper Sisters!  :D

Thank you for the good wishes, everyone! It has been a nice, if not classically birthdayish birthday today. However. I am wearing my new turquoise bead bracelet--my birthday present to me-- right now.

I'm staying at a very pretty bed and breakfast in Oaxaca. I figure all the walking we're doing to and from the center of town must be burning at least some of the calories from our meals.  Especially on the way back, which is uphill. For someone who inconveniently dislikes black beans, beer and avocados-- three staples here-- I'm eating very well!

Hello everyone! Thank you all for your birthday wishes! So far, so good  in birthday-land. I didn't make it chat yesterday because my mother and I were in San Francisco for a weekend of pre-birthday culture. We saw Tchailovsky's Sleeping Beauty at the SF Ballet on Saturday Evening, had an overnight stay at the St. Francis Hotel.  Did some new clothes shopping yesterday morningish. Ate lots and spent lots.
Evie—WOW, what a birthday cake! Beautiful, and entirely acceptable.
Aang—thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the story. 🙂 ("Dhugal  at Work—Dhugal grows up and gets an office job.) 😉
Bynw—thanks, Zipper Bro!

Thank you all for your kind wishes! So far, so good on the Birthday front. Not making a huge fuss this year, but had a nice Birthday Eve birthday party at my Monday evening writing group which always begins with a potluck supper. Two beautiful bouquets of roses, now gracing my living room coffee table, and the left-overs of my birthday cake, provided by my mother, is in my refrigerator. Took today off work to just do stuff I want to do. 

Laurna thank you, the cake is adorable!

Thank you everyone! Considering that I was extraordinarily limited in what I could do and where I could go on Friday, I actually did have a nice birthday this year. Since my mother has had her two doses of the vaccine, and I am in good health, we had a masked and socially distanced visit in my living room when she brought over my birthday presents. (Cute slippers, and a new set of bedsheets and a nice big pillow that Dmitri has now taken possession of.) In return, I gave her her long-delayed Christmas presient. (I ordered it on time, but it didn't get shipped until late December and got snarled up in the mail for several weeks until it finally arrived.)

After she went home, I did some painting, then got a Chinese take out dinner from my favorite local Chinese restaurant, and watched Moonstruck. Then enjoyed the birthday cake I baked.

Evie, How did you know I love Duff Goldman/Charm City Cakes?  :)  Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone. It was a pretty good birthday. My mother, brother and sister and I had a cracked crab lunch at my house, I opened some nice gifts and then we took a walk around my neighborhood. After our walk, we ate the birthday cake I made last night. It's a sponge cake recipe from Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking that I've made several times before, just not terribly recently. This time around, I didn't keep enough volume in the egg whites, and the cake was in the oven for about 5 minutes longer than it really needed. We agreed I wouldn't get the famed Paul Hollywood handshake for it, but I thought it was pretty good, nonetheless.

And part of me was thinking "I baked my own birthday cake and now you're critiquing it?" Sooner or later, having a family of British Baking Competition fans can circle around and bite you in the posterior when you least expect it.  ;) Anyway, still a pretty good birthday, and the four of us polished off three cracked crabs, we had a lot of laughs, and soon I'll go watch some Winter Olympics on TV.

Glad you had a good birthday!  My daughter loves Duff too, and I'm pretty certain I saw the episode when this Hogwarts cake was being built, since when she still lived at home, I think she watched every episode of every cake baking show that was on Netflix at the time. (This was when she still wanted to be a pastry chef.)

Thank you, everyone! I had a very nice birthday lunch arranged by my Mom. A great time was had by all. I was a little sorry that the timing meant I had to miss Zoom chat today, but I'll see you all next month.

I not only turned over a new year, but a new decade this time. I'm a Rabbit (according to the Chinese Zodiac) in the Year of the Rabbit, and my birthday coincided with February's full moon. These celebrations can be exhausting! But at least I know I'm not a werebunny.

Happy belated birthday, Shiral!  (I was very tired yesterday and never even turned on my computer.)

I'm glad you had a good time with your family!

Happy birthday, Shiral! May the saint of your day bless you ... let's see, Saint Agatha (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agatha_of_Sicily#Iconography), what was her tale ... eeee! Maybe emulate her steadfastness, not her fate!
