Look what I got myself the backyard squirrels got me for my birthday yesterday! They're from LayerCakeShop, and boy, are they cool (my favorite is the guy with the little lantern).
They are happily keeping me company by the stove right now, but if flying pasta sauce becomes a problem they may relocate to the safety of the windowsill. Gnomes, I was surprised to discover, do not like being dunked in marinara.
Bye for now. My brain is mush from 24 hours straight of birthday sugar, an hour and a half on my webcam in the Etsy labs, and the fact that Nut Boy just finished making cascarones and scurrying around looking for a head to smash them on.
How strange! Who doesn't like being dunked in marinara?

Happy Birthday..a week late. Had I known, I would have made you a cake for our book discussion....
hmmmm, will have to bring you back something very cool from Japan..I KNOW you love all things Japanese :-)
Also, if Squirrel Boy has any more cascarones, I offer up my head. I need some good luck.
Does Etsy keep a copy of the stuff that happens in the Virtual Labs? I wasn't able to attend your program, but would love to view it after the fact if it's available??
