Declan Chellar - he of the Macaroon eyes and the wonderful cartoons - tagged me with a lovely meme. What makes you feel like a blissed-out six year-old again?
I have never had any difficulty in staying in touch with my inner child, as Mr Hicks would say, my problem is more about staying in touch with my outer adult. What instantly transports me back to short-trousered happiness? Any birthday party that involves these four elements:
- Balloons on the front door indicating "The party's on he-ere!"
- Piping hot cocktail sausages, with the little sticks
- Chocolate Rice Krispie cakes - preferably made with good quality, dark chocolate
- Party bags for all the guests - or me, anyway - on departure
These elements were all in place for my 21st, my 30th and my 40th birthdays. Am I a simple, undemanding soul or what?

Hello Foodie Blogger ;) You will have to Guest post over at my place.
I never thought of using Dark Toblerone for Rice Krispie buns.
Is it really a Birthday? Cause I have a badge for you!
I don't remember 6, but I'll find some version of it next week.
Well hello there Granny M! It's not my birthday for a few weeks, but I'd be thrilled to (a) grab a badge and (b) do a foodie guest post over in your neck of the woods. The question is - savoury or sweet?
:D
The only memory I have of my sixth birthday was my grandmother giving me a card that said "HAPPY BIRTHDAY NOW YOU ARE 5".
I was so disgusted, I hid it behind her TV (which never worked, but at least served to hide my embarrassment).
Not only that, but she didn't realise she had bought me the exact same card as she had for my actual fifth birthday.
