My Buddy Gene Turns Seventy-five!

Happy Birthday, Gene!

I’m making flowers for you and baking a cake in your honor. What's your favorite flavor? I'm making an orange cake with cream cheese icing, so I hope you'll like it. Your flowers are all in beautiful sunset colors; so good for this time of year. The good beer is in the fridge and the hazelnut coffee is in the pot.
Hope this is the best 75th birthday you’ll ever have, at least in this life. In the next one, I hope we’ll meet and get to know each other. I suspect you’d be a great friend. Have a wonderful day and take care of yourself. We want you to be around for many more years.
Love ya’,
Judy

Everyone: go see Hoss and wish him a happy 75th!

Already done. Can I have a piece of cake?

Aw, gee whiz. Blush.

That cake sounds plenty good. Did you know I cannot eat cake*?


(*Unless I put it in a bowl and slather it with milk. I am part cat. I am thinking of reincarnating as a male lion so I can sit around and watch the women work.)

Hoss is the best.

I also do not understand why you are having a hard time getting to my site. Nothing has changed there?

Raehan said...

Any cake left? Kenju and Hoss together makes a mighty nice party.

(Thank you for buying speakers and listening to me.)

I scooted on over to OHS's place and wished him a happy birthday, Judy. I do hope he enjoys both his birthdays. And with one of your cakes--no doubt he will!

Old Hoss is 75 now is he? Hope I am still 'hip' enough to be doing a blog when I'm 75!

The cake sounds delicious and the icy cold beer - well, no words are needed to know what I think of that thought...mmmmm....

Here via Michele today Judy...(and I remember last weekend Chatty's site wouldn't let me in properly either!)
