For I've grown a little leaner, grown a little older...

I promise you all that this cake tasted every bit as good as it looked. It was a double-layered devil's food with vanilla frosting dyed green decorated with M&M's, and I made the whole thing myself. By now, of couse, it's all gone, but at least I was able to get these pictures before everyone dug in.

On Grandma's dining room table. Isn't it lovely?


The cake close-up.

Mom got me an end table that I'd been wanting forever. (Sara asked when I was setting it up, "Is it everything you dreamed it would be?") Athena and Josh sent me "Happy Birthday!" text messages, and Josh offered to find me a nude picture of Sean Murray. Haha. I told him I'd prefer one of Cote de Pablo. Sara gave me a pin that says "I Love Ducky" and an NCIS t-shirt that I'm wearing right now. It's awesome!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! You should be celebrating in Las Vegas!

P.S. - The cake looks delicious!!!

Thank you! But I'm not sure Vegas is for me, since I don't drink, smoke, gamble, or stay out late. I'd have to find some nerdy ways to have fun in that town. :)

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY! and now I want cake...

[rebecca-in-blue.livejournal.com]

Thank you! And my birthday isn't quite over yet in my time zone, so you're not belated at all!

Happy Birthday! I sent birthday wishes on facebook on your actual birthday because I can log on from my phone. That cake looks tasty!

I'm glad you had a good birthday.
