Wishing you the happiest of birthdays, Beth! I hope your day is fab.
Because I like Wallace & Gromit so much, I thought I'd try and find a picture of a W&G birthday cake for you. What I found instead though was this abberation, purportedly made by a professional bakery known for always having appallingly bad character cakes in their shop's window display :

I love how Wallace doesn't look anything like he's supposed to. Plus his arm has fallen off. And Gromit's newspaper seems to have been written in blood.
I hope you like it too!

(CJ, that is rather terrifying! Wallace has left his dentures out and stuffed his cheeks w/ cotton to play the Godfather)

I'm wishing you a belated birthday, Beth! You rock - and so does your thread with all the beautiful rocks. :)

I'm also wishing you a belated happy birthday, Beth. I was away and couldn't post before. I'm sorry the vicious insects drove you to an early end to your party.
― accentmonkey, Sunday, 29 July 2007 08:07 (sixteen years ago) link
tits. missed this. many belated happy returns.
― grimly fiendish, Monday, 30 July 2007 08:17 (sixteen years ago) link
Thank you! The birthday festivities continue, because—get this—we got so wrapped-up in the party that we FORGOT ABOUT THE BIRTHDAY CAKE. It was supposed to be taken out of the freezer an hour before eating, but it was bedtime by the time we remembered it. So we have to have another party! It's a fabulous cake with four layers of different kinds of chocolate and mousse. A chef we know makes them as a side-line. I ordered a giant one for my husband's 50th and covered it with raspberries. Num num num.
― Beth Parker, Monday, 30 July 2007 13:35 (sixteen years ago) link
Okay, that is completely awesome.
― Sara R-C, Monday, 30 July 2007 14:10 (sixteen years ago) link
Oh no, damn having no internet at home. HAPPY HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY BETH!! Glad you had a fabulous par-tay.
