I’ve signed up for a formspring account! Curious (or just chronically bored) readers can submit questions to be answered on my formspring page with complete anonymity. I see no problem with this whatsoever.
I’ll post my replies on my Twitter page, interspersed between my usual tweets: “iPads are stupid” and “OMG, I want an iPad!”
I feel that there’s no reason for birthday cakes to get more boring as you get older. If anything, they should get exponentially more absurd. I’m planning for my 40th birthday cake will be a 3-D goomba. This year, I received two awesome and fattening treats.
My friend Jessica, knowing that my favorite type of chocolate is “lots”, made a chocolate-chocolate-chocolate-chocolate cake (that’s a chocolate cake with chocolate chips, chocolate icing, and chocolate sprinkles). Sadly I did not have any chocolate milk on hand, but there’s always next year.
The second confectionery delight was made by aspiring pastry chef Frank Blakemore. Frank knows that the safest way to date my little sister is to distract me and my brothers with food – preferably the kind that will prevent us from moving for several hours.
The cake was inspired by Alex’s NNFB ninja star T-Shirt design and was the most delicious fanart we’ve ever received. Yes, that ninja star was edible.
Speaking of fanart. We have a wonderful creation by MiGo-Go who makes the Webcomic Gant. It’s not your typical Ina portrait. Check MiGo-Go’s Deviant art page for the whole story.
