surprise!!!

all is good in the world when you can throw a successful surprise birthday party! the birthday girl (for the sake of the story we shall call her... princess) was totally unaware and i quote..."i nearly cried... then i said to my self, pull it together princess!" the surprise was a few months in the making, took a lot of tom foolery and little bit of magic dust, finally (with a great sigh from my self) the party came together at the moonlight cinema and princess was most delighted!

tips for throwing your own surprise party...

1. don't organise it on facebook! more than likely you dont know all her/his friends, then you will have to add them and then all hell breaks loose!

2. don't try to bake if you are not co-ordinated! and keep the tea towls away from the elecric beater.

3. avoid encouraging the birthday person to organise their own party.

4. think of handy excuses in advance incase the moment arises when she/he starts asking questions...

The Walrus and the Carpenter
Were walking close at hand;
They wept like anything to see
Such quantities of sand:
"If this were only cleared away,"
They said, "it would be grand!"

"If seven maids with seven mops
Swept it for half a year.
Do you suppose," the Walrus said,
"That they could get it clear?"
"I doubt it," said the Carpenter,
And shed a bitter tear.

merry christmas eve...eve

it is an excellent tradition in my family to eat sweet corn patties on christmas day! without them christmas is lost. LOST! this year our delicious christmas sweet corn patties were left behind. forgotten. in the fridge. the christmas sweet corn patty grinch stole christmas... but only for a small moment. the fraser/carter/trumble/fairries managed to get back into business and had a splendid day. it was a christmas miracle!

with freshly painted yellow fingernails, i am typing to you, people of the world! on my keyboard quicker than i have ever typed before... i type in haste not because i am in a hurry and have some important business to attend to (really i am a lady of leisure until someone offers me an excellent job) but because i just cant stop!! i've heard people say that red things go fast... well baby! have you ever tried yellow?!
