Hi folks! *waves" I know I'm late kicking off my virtual birthday party of 2013, but considering that I worked almost 11 hours today, I think I can be forgiven, right?

It's that time of a year again - I'm getting older. In this case, I'm turning 57 on October 9, so let's party!

Last years virtual birthday party yielded 1328 comments on 6 pages, before LJ crashed the whole thing, and 617 additional ones on 3 pages at the second coming. Which won't be easy to top, but we're good, aren't we? WE CAN DO IT! WE CAN BREAK THE 2000-COMMENT-BARRIER! Let's give it a try! In the recent years, it has always been great fun, so let's have fun again!

You're all cordially invited to help yourself to a slice of virtual cake of your choice. If you want to post your favourite recipe in a comment, be my guest. If not, just drop by and say hello.

Cheers!

Note: The party will be closed on October 9, at midnight, sharp. However, to avoid the same mishap that occurred last year, there will be a separate post for each day until the 9th. We will count all pages and comments together when the party is closed.

Join us and have fun! Feel free to start any thread, any topic you want; we can discuss it, mock the general stupidity of life and laugh at it. I tentatively started two topics, just to begin the fun somehow, but you may add anything you want.

They are whatever you want them to be. I'd pick super-dark chocolate, myself.

That's a good idea. But what I meant was: are they muffins or pralines?

Ah, so sorry! I believe they are cupcakes. Ummm, cupcakes.

Apropos to little iced cakes, have you ever read Ellen Kushner's Swordpoint series? I think they'd be something you might enjoy.

Afraid not. I'll have to see if they have it in the only English bookshop in this city.

Aren't they, though? Wish I could claim the patience and skill to have made and decorated them, but my skills in that area are confined to searching Google Images for the prettiest of cakes.

It is indeed! I have no skills in that area; of course, I'm just as likely to eat up all the icing first anyway.
