The frosting was delicious, but I like a little frosting with my cake, not the other way around!<BR/><BR/>I was also so relieved to see Kyra.Nevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14121516208859975669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150007449992413732.post-30429727000019082582008-06-18T12:11:00.000-07:002008-06-18T12:11:00.000-07:00Hey, Neva,<BR/><BR/>Happy birthday!<BR/><BR/>To frost a cake with a thin layer of frosting, it helps to thin the frosting with a little liquid (soymilk, water, juice, whatever). Just a few drops will make a big difference. Also, it helps if the cake is frozen. Put it in the freezer for a few hours, and it will not fall apart when you try to frost it. Good luck!<BR/><BR/>So glad the dog came home!<BR/><BR/>DVeganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06867928749393717523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150007449992413732.post-48703285138113201522008-06-17T16:37:00.000-07:002008-06-17T16:37:00.000-07:00Oh yeah, I didn't mean to say that they don't have interests, just that when I was talking to this person I was astonished that she couldn't even get that they'd have the most basic of interests, like staying alive!johannahttp://vegansofcolor.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150007449992413732.post-62677393756405780182008-06-17T07:43:00.000-07:002008-06-17T07:43:00.000-07:00Thank you.<BR/><BR/>Animals do have their own interests, just not in the same sense of people having hobbies. They have favorite games and toys. Some of our animals watch the tv and while I doubt they understand plot, they are fascinated by the movement or something. Other cats show no interest in the tv. Liam loves to watch the feral cats out of the window and even tries to talk to them through the window, while Obi doesn't like strange cats and so either doesn't watch or hisses at them. They all have their particular friends they are close to. The dogs love taking walks and as I said, they enjoy caring for the feral cats.Nevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14121516208859975669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150007449992413732.post-87836082964782097402008-06-17T06:03:00.000-07:002008-06-17T06:03:00.000-07:00Happy belated birthday & anniversary!<BR/><BR/>"I'm always amazed when people say that animals don't have personalities or souls. How could anyone spend time with animals and deny it?"<BR/><BR/>Me too!! Someone I know--who shares her home w/cats, no less--recently said to me that animals don't have interests of their own. I was like, uh, surely animals have interest in food & shelter & staying alive?!?johannahttp://vegansofcolor.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
