Thought the momentous occasion of Evie's birthday meant I should start up a general birthday thread.
May her amazing imagination continue to flourish, may she happily continue her plans to torture / torment various characters for another year, and may she have many wonderful dreams of a certain Deryni bishop in Rhemuth :)
Happy Birthday, Evie!! Don't let Luke eat all your cake ...

LOL! That does look a lot like my Luke, though I'd be more worried about him nomming my peas than my birthday cake. ;D
My very own birthday thread....aww, thank you! *blush*
And very well deserved!
I hope you have a marvelous day. Grub is hosting a small "Arilan" family party for you in the King Tree. :D
LOL! Now that would be my ideal birthday party, or at least it would be if the weather were warmer and drier. :D When I was a little girl, one of my favorite pages in the book Go, Dogs, Go! was that scene where all the dogs are going to the dog party up in a large tree. I used to wish I could go too! ;D
But did Grub know to invite Duncan? ;) Or will Evie have to celebrate later alone with him .... :D
Hopefully someone will have warned him to wear his "civvies" and not a cassock, or it might be difficult for him to climb that tree!
Lady Avisa helped Grub with the guest list and planned on having suitable attire ready for clerical and female guests that would be attending. Poor Sophie was a bit dismayed by the idea, though Jashana thought it was great fun. ;D
Bishop Duncan was most comfortable sitting beside the Birthday Girl. ;)
LOL! Oh, I suspect Sophie would get quite into the fun after the first few minutes of shyness. Seisyll might have to swallow his dismay at the thought of his wife flashing her legs around like that, in those slightly immodest and unfeminine chausses.... ;)
I can just see Jashana thinking it's a really fun lark, and bringing the custom of tree parties back home to Llyr, to the bemusement of her husband's people. ;D
Eep! I missed Evie's birthday!
Evie, happy belated returns of the day, and I hope there was some cake left without cat slobber on it!
(After all, you couldn't offer Duncan, bishop and emeritus Duke of Cassan slobbery cake! Even if he does love cats.) I assume you invited him, naturally.
Melissa
But of course Duncan was invited! :D
And don't worry about the cake. The one in the photo was the special Nom Cake, deliberately left out for the cats to find so that they wouldn't discover the real birthday cake. The Nom Cake was quite liberally laced with catnip, I'm afraid, so the Basilica cats are now hyperactive and taking over the entire Castle.... ;D

A very Happy Birthday to the wonderful Desert Rose - not sure when it should be 'my' time, but happy birthday anyway. Hope you enjoy the celebrations.
Remember that Capricorns, like good Fianna wine, actually improve with age :D
ETA: I couldn't resist adding this:-

LOL, thanks, Alkari. It's not until tomorrow, my time, but I believe it is already the 12th your time, so go ahead and celebrate for me, if you're so inclined!
*blushes and laughs*
I love the cat picture. That is too cute.
Silleh kittehs! You're obligate carnivores!
That being said, many happy returns of the day and may God grant you many years!
Happy birthday DesertRose and thanks for all you do for the forum! :)

(And apparently no one has informed my kittehs that they are carnivores, because Luke's favorite "kitty treat" is a spoonful of canned peas, and Gigi goes crazy over homemade ranch dip with dill. :D )
Happy Birthday, Desert Rose! You have now Outlived Mozart! :D
Melissa
*blushes*
Thanks, y'all. :)
Happy birthday to Jerusha!

Happy birthday, Jerusha!! :)
Thank you Evie and DR! I'm ready for cakes, too! :D
Happy birthday Jerusha - by my calculations, it is still your birthday where you are, LOL.

yes, happy birthday to all - November seems to be a popular month, lets see dec jan feb - feb the worst month for cold and stormy weather.
but given the these of this group, shouldnt we celebrate feast days too?
Saint Camber's Day, also known as King Kelson's Birthday, is coming up on the 15th of this month, IIRC. That's also the day of my workplace's Thanksgiving luncheon, so in a way I'll be celebrating the Feast of Saint Camber.... :D
Happy, happy birthday, Evie, on the big "5-0"! Hope you have a marvelous day.
I believe the littles are planning to "party on" on your behalf. :)
Well, they've certainly got enough libations for a party, if not a feast for one yet. :D
Yay! Happy birthday. :)
FIFTY--FIFTY--FIFTY--FIFTY--Evie is so lucky!!
Happy birthday (slightly belated) Evie!

Happy birthday, Evie! I hope it was a good one! :)
Thanks, everyone! And LOL at 18 with 32 years experience. :D
Happy Birthday, Evie! Even if I'm just a little late to the party! Sorry about that. Can I make you believe a giant took my head off to see if it would go better on a different body?
I hope all the Littles and their assorted detatched heads toasted you with appropriate verve with the Vezaire Port. Just don't let Little Alaric drink more than his share, or little Duncan will have to give him a penance. ;D
I think the "I'm in my extremely late teens" concept is an idea whose time has arrived!
Melissa
Duncan says that Vezairi port provides its own form of penance. :D
And no, I don't believe a giant took off your head to see if it would go better on some other body, Melissa; that's preposterous! Next thing I know, you'll be trying to convince me that some sick people go impaling heads on wooden poles...um.... OK, so maybe I'll believe you. *furtive look*
Happy Birthday DF64! Hope you have a wonderful day! :D
Happy birthday, DF!
Happy Birthday, DF!
Thank you everyone! ;D
Happy birthday, derynifanatic64! I hope it's a good one. :)
Oops, nearly missed it - but it's still 9 January in the USA, so Happy Birthday, DF. As a fellow Goat, you know that just like good wine, we improve with age! :D

Happy birthday DesertRose! I hope you had a marvelous and very happy day! :D
Officially it's still January 12 here in Pacific Time, so Happy Birthday, DR! I hope you had a day filled with your favorite things and favorite people!
Melissa
Wow, I go away for a day or two, and you people start growing old on me! ;) Happy birthday, DR! :D
Thanks, y'all. I had a great birthday, and I'm actually sort of still celebrating, because we didn't get around to cake on Saturday (which was my actual birthday) so we're doing that tomorrow. :D
That's fun. This gives me a chance to wish you happy birthday as well. Without appearing too far behind the times.
Happy Birthday.
