spatch having to work on his actual birthday, we used the available hours of the afternoon to celebrate the occasion with waffles. I gave him a card with gannets and the DVDs of Detectorists (2014–2022) which I had been hiding in time-honored fashion in the chest of drawers. He carries fifty years of time now. I think it's pretty neat.

We had maple syrup and whipped cream and three kinds of jam and this is how I discovered that apparently the only thing I want to eat on waffles ever again is elderberry jam.

I like ume and even umeboshi on their own time. Chagrined to hear it about the sakura flavor, although some of it might be the conversion to Kit Kat. Melon-and-mascarpone I agree I'm not sure how it would translate at all.

The waffle cake looks great *grin*

Transmitted!

You can't just serve someone a stack of waffles for their birthday and not put some flames on top! (Thank you.)

The waffles look very yummy!

I will tell him!
The waffles look very yummy!
They were most satisfying to the birthday person and I even enjoyed them!

And fills from
(I'm glad there are some. *hugs*)
ETAS: Oh, btw, random addition, but
What a stretch for him! How do you imagine anyone came up with that casting???? XD

I'll tell him! I am given to understand he enjoyed the afternoon. He got cards from the rest of the family, too.
And fills from thseathseatheopensea is a very nice thing, too.
Yes. And I am really appreciating the existence of nice things.
*hugs*
ETAS: Oh, btw, random addition, but liadtbunny just informed me that Martin Jarvis just guested on the most recent series of the BBC's Father Brown... as a radio actor.
Hah! I see a wild Rosalind Ayres also appears.
What a stretch for him! How do you imagine anyone came up with that casting????
I cannot imagine, but I hope to look forward to your review. Or at least a gifset.
no subject
Oh, lol, I didn't know that. I suppose I should check out which episode it is and maybe even watch it or something. It'll be on the iPlayer, anyway. Hmm... XD
Martin Jarvis at this point should just be a standard synonym for 'radio actor' and have done with it.

No, definitely also the fills!
I will attempt the S&S ones later, when it's a bit cooler. Hold my c&t, we will have our own Lizabeth Scott and Alfred Ryder Elemental lookalikes!
Wahoo!
*hugs*
