Birthday Party - The Second Coming

[wiseheart]

As you all know by now, LJ has decided to crash our birthday party - the original post is no longer visible. But some of us still had most of the comments in our inbox and decided to reconstruct the original party as well as we can, because we had great fun and the discussions were wonderful.

However, to avoid the same mishap occurring to us, we've decided to open up a second entry for further comments while working on rebuilding the original. We still have two days left, and we won't allow LJ to crash our party!

The original entry had 1328 comments, on 6 pages. The reconstructed party has now 500+ (all reposted within one day and a few new ones added), having reached Page 7 already.

Let's see what else can we come up with. New guests are welcome to share the fun. :)

This is actually my sister's birthday cake from a few years back that she made herself. It is a family recipe though (that my Mum cut out of a news paper longer ago than I can remember) and we have all made (and continue to make) the cake (including my brothers). The original recipe just had chocolate frosting; the Smarties like sweets were my Mum's addition. When we were little she used to spell out our names and ages with them. These days we usually go for pretty patterns instead.
