Let's get ready to rumble......

There's much activity and organisational goings on in our abode today.

Tomorrow Master 12 will be going through an unofficial and non existent name changing ceremony....where he will become Master 13.

But first I must get through today.

As it is such a special birthday.....where he makes that great leap from gorgeous little boy to ratbag teenager...it calls for a special celebration.

For starters there was no effort spared on the all important birthday cake.....I promised Master 12 that I would whip up his all time favourite recipe.....whatever he'd like....and then I made this.....


....he loves it....really he does!!

In my minds eye the icing was going to be lime green....cause I'm up with the jiggy jig and that's an "in" colour......in reality it was more mushy peas than cool limes........


Here's the end result....I'd eat it.......


Then I came up with this ingenious plan to transport it......


That's the cake container upside down over the top....keeps the glad wrap off the icing....but means I can keep the cake on the serving plate....haha....*pats self on back*

This afternoon I will be keeping out of the way supervising while a group of 12 and 13 year old boys run around and shoot each other...it's a lovely little game where the person that kills the most other people is declared the winner.......violence in our society......what violence?!?

In between rounds I will feed them chips and pizza and cake....and then I will send them home to their mothers....hopefully in one piece.

Wish me luck!!
