Begin the day with White Hot Chocolate, from
The Barefoot Contesssa's recipe, as won by the Birthday Boy in
Sherri B's competition this summer. Wow! This possibly contains enough calories and delight for the day...
But... Add light lunch with carrot cake and 12 candles.
Introduce six more boys, aged between 11 and 13, and take to Laser Game, Toulouse.
Return home and light bonfire.
Cook and eat sausages, and provide little light-gel sticks, intended for garden lighting, but much more useful as Light Sabres if you are 11 - 13.
Play night-time table tennis (optional).
Add fireworks.
Introduce treacle tart, warm from the oven.
Toast marshmallows over embers.
Go to bed happy.
Now, get ready for Christmas!

Wow, I wish I'd known you when my boys were that age, your parties look much more fun than anything I ever cooked up for them! And I must have a closer look at said cookbook...
Wow, could turning 12 get any better than this? My Bill went to Laser Force for his birthday this year, it must have universal appeal! Love all the fun things the boys did, surely a birthday that will be remembered for a long time. Hope all is well with you Floss, much love xo ps. can you email me your address? Still have that package for you :)
