The candy floss clouds kept on dissolving. Then Toothless's wing caught on fire while I was lighting the candles and I had to blow it out along with all the candles and start again. They almost burst into flames again while we sang happy birthday! Interesting times.

Okay, so the party is done. Now I can concentrate on eating right again

Wow awesome cake.
What did you make the characters out of?

Thank you! I made the bodies out of fondant and the wings out of rice paper

Wow, you certainly are a talented baker Nadine.. that is so creative

Thanks Jo

Oooh rice paper interesting. I like sculpting with fondant.

I am 50 and would love to call that middle age. Never know! I have been doing MFP on and off for years. It only works when I'm "on", so I intend to stay. Feel free to add me.

Always a good Sunday when you wake up to an alert that something might be happening at the nuclear power plant nearby. But don't worry it's under control. Then again when they send the follow up that it was sent in error you kind of wonder what kind of idiots are actually working there.

Happy Sunday morning at least we're not in the midst of a nuclear meltdown

I'm guessing someone will be losing their job tomorrow.

Of course I was talking to my mom who never really listens to the full story and says oh dear the situation is still going on. No it's not there was no situation and the second message was in error. I'm pretty sure my mom is engaged to a Nigerian prince and all her bank accounts have been given to someone at a call centre in India so no doubt she is ready for nuclear meltdown

this is the one I meant:

Oh man, can I relate to that! My dad just could not grasp the idea of internet safety at all. He would open any email sent to him, such as "but it says I'm getting a free Amazon card!" It took some work, but I finally convinced him to let me have his email box set to exclusive so he could browse through all the junk mail in the junk mail folder, which has some protections on it.

And then there was google - he would do a google search and would open every single link about 10 pages deep, and you can imagine what some of those links were when he was searching for "wooden toys" (he makes wooden toys and was innocently looking for ideas for new toys; some of the sites he opened, however, were far, far from innocent)

He got so many viruses on one computer, I had to just wipe the hard-drive. And I had to activate the parental controls and put net nanny on his pc to try to protect it from malicious websites. That locked it down so much that he started getting frustrated with it, and then when some battery on the motherboard started dying and causing errors, he declared his computer dead and has been without one for over a year now, to everyone's relief.

I gave him a Kindle Fire for his birthday as he's taken up reading a lot, but immediately activated the parental control and locked down safari to keep him off the internet. So far, he hasn't realized that its supposed to be able to browse the internet lol

Omg. Our parents are the same. My mom is always telling us how visa is calling saying there's fraud on her card. Um did they mentioned your name? Say what Bank they're with you know the one they issues your visa.

It's horrible how these scams target the vulnerable.
