I want to express my appreciation to those of you who sent along birthday wishes for our Boy Munchkin. He had his tenth birthday on Saturday, and, of course, we helped him celebrate!
It was all about Lord of the Rings this year, and Munchomom baked a wonderful cake.
Isn't it looking great? |
All ready for the lighting of the candles! |
Boy Munchkin has requested white cake, and that is what was baked! Do you see Frodo standing at the door to the Hobbit Hole? Is that Gandolf on the pathway to the door?
Machoman had outlined a terrific party plan using the Lord of the Rings theme, and other refreshments were bread, cheese, meat, and grapes - just what was eaten by the characters in the book!
It was a great week-end, and I think Boy Munchkin was very pleased with the celebration! So were the other seven guests!
Thank you for reading. I really appreciate your comments.
The cake looks delicious and beautiful too. What a nice birthday celebration!
ReplyDeleteWow, great cake and just what the Munchkin birthday boy ordered. You are a good grandmother.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.

Boy Munchkin is a wonderful young man, and I'm sure he enjoyed his party enormously! That is a lovely and smart cake! Have a happy Monday, Sister! :-)
ReplyDeleteOh yummy I want some of that cake!!!!
ReplyDeleteA very nice cake and I love the food idea. My husband just finished The Return of the King last night. He always reads the books in the fall, even before we were married.
ReplyDeleteI love that it was such a fun party. Susan Branch will be here signing books on Thursday. I thought of you, and wished you could come with me. She is on her way home from the East Coast. She is going to be at our local quilt shop and not the bookstore. I thought that was interesting. Have a great day Nellie.
Nellie, That is a cute idea for kids. I bet Boy loved it. Blessings for a great week. xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteP.s. Oh how wonderful to be able to go to a Susan Branch book signing.
A pleased Boy Munchkin is a very good thing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool cake for a Boy Munchkin! What more could a cool guy ask for!

What an adorable cake, Nellie. Although, I'm not sure adorable is the way a little boy would describe it, lol...
