So, it is party time again, folks!

[wiseheart]

Each year this time, we launch my virtual birthday party, which starts on October 1 and ends on October 9 at midnight, sharp. The goals of the party are to post as many comments and collapse as many threads as possible, on as many new pages as we can. It is always great fun, as you can see if you check out the similar entries of the last few years.

This year, I'll also throw the real party at mid-time - and post the recipes of all the food that will be there for you, so that you can all participate if you want to. Virtual food has no calories.

Fandom-related discussions are as welcome as the ones about coffee or chocolate (just to name a few favourites from previous years), and, of course, pictures and recipes of birthday cakes. ;)

So, drop by, tell your story, post your pics or silly poems, ask questions you always wanted to ask and have a good time!

Soledad, in excited expectation




Oh, and by the way, to provide birthday gifts hobbit-style, I've got a revived story and a Kansas 2 update for you.

Enjoy!

We'll also have Quick & easy cheesy buns (http://wiseheart.livejournal.com/553318.html), the version of them enriched with sunflower seeds, sesame seed, linseed and pumpkin seed. Follow the link for the recipe.

Oh my - those sound so good (it doesn't help that it's just before lunch and I am a bit hungry). I am going to have to make some this weekend.

These, too, are very easy to make. With the kids, we finished them in 45 minutes, cutting and decorating and baking and all. (Including gobbling up the whole thin.*g*)

These sound delcious! I am a great fan of cheese. :-) Have you tried halloumi? I had some for dinner, with boiled rice and lightly fried sugar snap peas and peppercorn sauce. Yummy, if I do say so myself!

Sounds exciting. I never had halloumi. What is it made of? I mean, from which animal does it come?

[solanpolarn.livejournal.com]

Halloumi is made with a mixture of goat's and sheep's milk, though I think the sort you can buy in the shops here also has some cow's milk in it. It is the only cheese I know that you can grill, and I think it tastes delicious! The texture is not like ordinary cheese, but rather chewier. It is not to everyone's liking; I have a friend who refuses to eat it, saying it makes a weird noise when you chew it. Being a vegetarian it is one of my favourite things to barbeque; it turns out a lovely brown colour and, as I mentioned, tastes great.

I didn't know you were a vegetarian. One learns new things about one's friends all the time. ;)
