I'm late reading posts and sorry I missed your birthday with dozens and dozens of QB friends! Everyone forgot my BD one year and I made myself a chocolate cake and wrote "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME" in yellow letters. Then I tried to get creative (never a good thing) and make some white flowers w/yellow centers on the cake. The flowers looked more like fried eggs, but it got the message across.

Happy belated birthday! I know how you feel, I never get any parade either. My birthday is tomorrow and it kind of makes me feel blue because I know nothing special will happen (# 50 too boot). A couple of years ago I got the biggest surprise. I was lamenting to the veterinary tech that treated our cat (2 times a week for kidney failure) that nothing special, not even a cake. The next week at our appointment she had a belated birthday cake for me. That was the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me. I will never forget. I wish you something fun and unexpected to happen this year that you will never forget. And I guess I should be smart like you and get a frozen cake to celebrate myself, you can treat yourself on your birthday, just do like you do for everyone else. I usually like to shop for myself, then your get exactly what you wanted! Hope you enjoyed your cake.

Hi Jenny and happy almost-birthday. Hope something nice and unexpected happens and even if it doesn't, be surprised with lots of good wishes from all your quilt board friends. Have a great year, fifty isn't so bad.

Happy Birthday early, Jenny. The year I turned 50 I became a grandmother for the first time. That made it really special. I have always felt that when we have our birthdays, our mother is the one who should have the special party or celebration. My mother is not around and I guess that makes me feel sad. But when we get old or older we have to look out for ourselves. Hence the birthday cake for me. My grandkids laugh because I told them I was forty, which is one year younger than their uncle Ted; he is 41. So now that is the joke, Grannie is younger than Uncle Ted. Sounds more believable than being forever 29.
