As in each year, I'm throwing a virtual birthday party, which starts today and ends on October 9 at midnight, sharp. The goal, as always, is to produce as many collapsing threads on as many pages as possible. You are welcome to joins, start threads, post pictures and participate on every discussion you want to.

To make the party more appealing, here are pics of the two cakes I baked for my real birthday party, which we had yesterday with a bunch of colleagues - a week too early because of school schedules.

Pineapple tart with vanilla pudding:



And a chocolate sponge cake, filled with whiskey-orange marmalade, which we bought in London about a century ago, and decorated with coconut shards:



So, I'm turning 61, soon, come and celebrate with me! Oh, and cake recipes and pictures totally count as threads, too.

That was one incredibly boring film. GDL was fairly decent in it - even though there were moments when I was afraid his trouser suit would be torn apart as he climbed down a rope - but the so-called (nonexistent) plot dragged on infinitely, the outcome was ridiculous and the Holmes actor horrible, IMO.

I strongly suggest to do so, for your own safety. Just google for some pictures to see GDL as a Victorian gentleman with the mandatory moustache. *g*

I might do that, but I liked him the way he was dressed in his Warehouse 13 episode, very dapper ;)

Sadly, I never saw that episode. I gave up on Warehouse 13 after half a season - it was just too silly for me. Of course, Kate Mulgrew showing up as one of the lead character's mother was a major put-off factor.

I wondered why I recognised Pete's mother... Now I know!

I like silly, so I enjoy it. Each to their own likes and dislikes. It would be a very boring world if everyone liked the same. GDL was wonderful in his role though, definitely my favourite episode.
