September Pixie

Yesterday was my birthday. We didn’t do anything special but we did open a bottle of wine and I made cupcakes and ice cream! If you remember my posts in the following years about how shitty my birthdays usually are… well since we did nothing it was great… except.. <rant>I did find out that if I call people on THEIR birthdays or send cards.. I never get one in return.. so I’m thinking to stop at least to those people…only one person called (wtf… my RL friends suck and I need new ones! I didn’t even get an E-Card!) — Christina! <– you were the ONLY person who remembered so of course, you don’t suck. I dunno, I don’t generally think its too much to expect your friends to at least phone you and say “hey happy birthday.. I gotta go pick up the kids so I will call you later” or a simple ecard at least!? especially since ONE friend I have known for 27yrs didn’t call me and I called her from California to wish her a happy birthday!</rant>

Anyhoo, nothing on the gift front to report except I got some lovely peach miniature roses from Sergey that I will plant next spring I am knitting like crazy on a pair of socks for a sock swap I am involved in.. I have to finish and mail them by the 29th and I have one just almost completed so I think I will be OK. I will post pics when its finished.

I used a modified recipe from here + Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World.

Not the most appetizing photo of ice cream in the world.. but…………………. it was good!
