Today was the seventh birthday of our beautiful cats Hestia Hermia Linsky-Noyes and Tybalt Autolycus Taaffe, in honor of which we served them a dinner of non-emergency kipper and praised them for all their fine catly qualities and the unstinting joy they have given us since their days of soot spritehood.
Today was also my mother's birthday observed, in honor of which my father made a triple-layer almond-flour cake wreck decorated with two colors of fondant and cocoa-dusted homemade marzipan to the tune of a Swiss cheese wheel inhabited by mice with ears of split almond. My niece gleefully hunted the latter and ate all their tails.
I feel a theme was successfully achieved.
