\o/ THANK YOU

applegeuse!!!

Look look! Look what I got for my birthday! I got cookies! I got cookies from Americaland! I got cookies that have crossed the Atlantic. I got a whole box!

But I only took a picture of three, because I wanted to take a pretty picture with the cookies and the card.

Needless to say, that didn't work out too well. I have no talent for photography. But at least I tried! Here, the picture is just precious.

It reminds me of the illustrations to Uncle Fyodor, His Dog and His Cat by Eduard Uspenski*. I'm sure the series has been translated into English - if there's anyone out there with a thing for children's lit, I warmly recommend it.

I am so glad! I would run over and hug you, dearest Pickles, if there was not an ocean in the way. <3

Yay for birthday goodies! The card is absolutely adorable! :)

It is, isn't it? :) The cookies taste completely different from the kind we have here. I really like the taste, but it's been like a scientific experiment, getting the hang of the flavour. I find I can eat 2 in one hour, tops, or I get completely overwhelmed by the sweetness. It's amazing!

What a nice birthday surprise! :)

Happy belated birthday, by the way! Hope it was wonderful.

It was! Brightened my whole day. And - don't worry, you're actually early :) My birthday isn't until the 30th. I have one whole week left of being 26. I plan to enjoy every last minute of it :P
