I was catering for over 20 people, so couldn't make anything elaborate anyway. <BR/><BR/>Angelika - I'll try! I'm leading a rather Spartan life nowadays, so indulging in some food every now and then is necessary to keep me happy:)<BR/><BR/>Kalyn - my blog is still a baby compared to yours, but I'm a whopping thirty-one years older than your blog now;)<BR/><BR/>Tankeduptaco - that's an interesting way of putting it:) <BR/><BR/>Thredahlia - suur aitäh heade soovide eest! <BR/><BR/>Valentina - thanks for your kind wishes! I had a lovely birthday week, and my twenty-twelfth year looks rather promising:)<BR/><BR/>Shauna - thank you so much:)<BR/><BR/>Keiko - I had wonderful time indeed - and as it happens, I do get to go Paris after all, just a fortnight later than originally planned!Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1147006904772272392006-05-07T16:01:00.000+03:002006-05-07T16:01:00.000+03:00Happy belated birthday, Pille!

You can start with "ilus", "maitsev" ja "ma tahan ka!"<BR/><BR/>Foxy Roxy:) A Swiss roll tin is a rectangular cake tin, approximately 20 x 30 cm in size. <BR/><BR/>Clivia - yep, this Taurean foodblogger did celebrate her birthday on Monday indeed.. And the cake went down a storm, I'm happy to say. <BR/><BR/>amyjames - the picture looks a bit weird indeed:) Thank you for your birthday wishes!<BR/><BR/>Tainapoiss - suur-suur aitäh!<BR/><BR/>Jasmine - I love the idea of mocca-almond cupcakes!<BR/><BR/>Bea - thank you for your kind words!<BR/><BR/>Ilva - I tried to be discreet, but then I did want some birthday wishes from my readers as well - alas, I had to give a small hint at least:)<BR/><BR/>Pene - my birthday was on April 24th, so just before Anzac day. No picture of the cut cake - all 24 pieces or so were gone before I could get my camera, but it looks pretty much like <A HREF="http://www.nami-nami.pri.ee/recipe/recipe.php?q=picture&pID=1226" REL="nofollow">the last picture here</A>. You can skip the sponge part by buying one round "biskviitpõhi" from the shop (make sure it is the locally baked one, as those imported long-life thin sponge bases are vile!). Did you make Anzac biscuits today? Happy birthday to your husband on Thursday!<BR/><BR/>Mia - I'm glad you liked the carrot recipe. And indeed, this cake has similar flavours to tiramisu - feel free to use some mascarpone to make the cream richer. I couldn't use any booze in the cake this time, as two of my guests are expecting, but Vana Tallinna kooreliköör is great for this cake:)<BR/><BR/>Anita - kiitos!<BR/><BR/>Pippurimylly - kiitos! I had a fantastic party - am one very happy birthday girl:)<BR/><BR/>Ulla - it's a looker, eh?!Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1145996362164827682006-04-25T23:19:00.000+03:002006-04-25T23:19:00.000+03:00That looks amazing!That looks amazing!Ullahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16048436304881886327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1145986216586096312006-04-25T20:30:00.000+03:002006-04-25T20:30:00.000+03:00Oh, my congrats come late already - happy birthday...Oh, my congrats come late already - happy birthday anyway, Pille!
