Hey Newbies, over here first Come on in and tell us more about yourself. IMPORTANT: For new members, please read "New Members Only" BEFORE registering.
Glad you couldn't find one with 40 on it. Maybe if it's not written down, it's not happening!
(Actually I'm perfectly fine with this milestone, embrace what you can't change and all that.)
Glad Ananda got in there with asking how old you were before midnight the other day!
And glad Iolanthe (your adopted internet-mother?) got the right cake for you.
"People without hope not only don't write novels, but what is more to the point, they don't read them.
They don't take long looks at anything, because they lack the courage.
The way to despair is to refuse to have any kind of experience, and the novel, of course, is a way to have experience."
-Flannery O'Connor
"In spite of much that militates against quietness there are people who still read books. They are the people who keep me going."
-Elisabeth Elliot, Preface, "A Chance to Die: The Life and Legacy of Amy Carmichael"
I baked a cake for my favorite sheep. Instead of a 40, it has a 4.
Or, if you prefer, here are some cupcakes.

Aren't they? That's why I couldn't resist linking them, even after I'd found the cake.

Ali, unfortunately I think I'm heading into bi-focal territory already
MsMary, the cakes are absolutely gorgeous thank-you AND you got my mental age right in the first one.
Ok, off to work to celebrate the big day.
Hmm... something not right about that sentence.
Those cupcakes are cute, too! But I'd have better luck recreating the ones MsMary found. I can work with mini marshmallows. Icing in a pastry tube? Not so much.
