Alas, the quarantine 1st birthday party was the case for our granddaughter. But she still got to cover herself with cake.

I’ll bet she had a blast and never gave the quarantine a thought. 🙂
As you may or may not know, my nickname for my grandson is “Peanut.” When he had his first birthday, his mother baked him a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. He was so excited that he attacked it face-first and got frosting all over his face. Chocolate covered Peanut!

My next door neighbours have this same issue. Their little girl can’t have a 1st birthday party, either.

First birthdays are for everyone but the kid. The kid won’t know or care, as Bluebird alluded.
Give the mom a glass of wine and whisper “Happy Birthday. We know who did all the work.”

The straphanging guy; LOLOL!
The subtitles one is actually a really good idea.
As usual, I love ’em all 😀 Thanks again for the daily smiles!

I use the subtitles all the time, because my hearing is so bad that I miss a lot of the dialogue otherwise. My best friend and I call them the “subtleties” because our eyesight is no better than our hearing, and from a distance “subtitles” looks like “subtleties” to us.

Subtleties vs subtitles; HILARIOUS! 😀
I use them all the time too, because I live on a through street and got tired of having to keep adjusting the volume on the TV.
Haven’t (yet?) had the reading issue, but I am starting to find my arms are occasionally too short to read small print up close.

I don’t have any favorites in this batch, Bob. They all had me giggling. My husband thinks I’ve gone crackers. (Speaking of which, I’ll just pop off and eat one or six.)

Good ones. I especially liked teaching reading by muting the sound on the TV programs. 😀 — Suzanne
