Happy Birthday (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
174 calories in each –
I gave you six; am I a peach?
Scottish Shortbread to come after,
given with kisses, received with laughter.
You got Haribo and Buttons, too,
plus birthday cake – what’ll you do?
You really have to watch your weight
now you’re an ancient 48.

Happy Birthday, Sweetie Pie.
PS This colour is sky blue – just for you xx
I am a little fat. I like food; what can I say? I have dull hair: mousey. I don’t wear much make-up and have no need of a dressing table. If I look like a bag lady, I chose my own clothes. If I look nice, the Hub picked them for me. Despite all this, I am a little vain. This photograph is from 2003. I had to go back that far to find one of me that I liked. But I don’t really care: my husband still thinks I’m beautiful and if he doesn’t, he loves me enough to lie about it. I’m lucky. I have two boys. They never lie to me. Still, you can't have everything.

Many happies, Paul. Enjoy the goodies and savour the poem.

I wrote two for him; a romantic one for his card. I think he blacked out for a moment 🙂

Happy Birthday! For some magical reason, food has NO calories on your birthday. So no worries for the Hub. 🙂

Happy Birthday Hub, we all feel as if we know you.
And congrats on the Walnut Whip/Haribos/Buttons party, the kind everyone should have, no matter what age.
(I notice that you’re not getting Maltesers)

Mine was spent feeling sorry for myself and the Hub’s was spent being ignored by me, who was feeling sorry for herself.
So, same old same old 🙂

I’m miffed that he seems to be more popular than I am on this blog. Next year, he gets nothing.
