What was I thinking!

A dear friend pointed out something to me this afternoon on the phone. What might that be? Well, it is very close to my birthday and I have not been advertising my big day. WHAT'S THAT ALL ABOUT?! I don't know. Actually the funny thing is I actually almost blogged this morning about my first birthday card arriving yesterday. Yep...it did, but I'm not sure it counts. Its a card from the wonderful people at my local Hallmark store. Does it count? I do spend a lot of time in there, not to mention money. They do know me by name....at least a couple of the ladies do. I don't know. Oh hell, yeah, I'm counting it. Technically I received a lovely, thoughtful, birthday present from Sue a while back, so she got the ball rolling. I can't help it, I'm a birthday junky. It really has something to do with the cake and vanilla ice cream.
You know, when I was little, I loved it when Mom made me the bunny cake, leaving off the coconut of course. I tried to find a picture that did Mom's cake justice....but couldn't find one that was nice enough. That is why I put the bunny cupcakes on here...in honor of the bunny. As I got older, I became a huge fan of the Confetti Angel Food Cake, yummy. I still love it. It's high in sugar but its so good and fat free. I don't want frosting on it either...I'm a plain Jane when it comes to my CAFC.
Anyway, to get this out of the way, so I don't seem like I'm shirking my responsibility as a birthday lovin' fool....My Birthday is MAY 7th. Ahhhhhhh, that felt good.

  4. I'll try to avoid being hit by a bus...but I don't know that you can avoid these kinds of things. I promise I won't jump in front of one though.

  8. Happy early bday!
    I always end up blogging about my birthday. one because it is on the anniversary of D-Day and two it's also my blogiversary (stayed tuned as I am gonna run a contest for it this year )
    Usually though I am griping about it as every year I hold out hope someone just one person in my family will acknowledge it's my birthday but it never happens and I get all ranty (usually after announcing it wont bother me lol)

  11. Well, I was wondering if you were ok since we usually have to hear about your birthday coming up for months ahead of time. I guess you did have your blogerversary to keep you occupied. I checked out Marianne's site - loved the explanation she gave her daughter for having knee pads in the bedroom!
