Her and History

I received a call last Friday, April 23 around 3:00 pm. The caller asked for my address. I'm hesitant to give my address to a complete stranger so I asked her on what's the reason behind asking for my address. She then explain that she's from S&P Bakery and she needs to send me "my" cake. I was baffled because I didn't order any cake . When I want something from S&P bakery, I just walk over there and grab what I want

. That's how close I am to this bakery

. "Oh, yeah...I remember that it's my birthday on Sunday and maybe somebody wanted to surprise me!"...I then gave her my address and she asked me on what time I wanted "my" cake be delivered. I told her around 3:00 pm.

Wow, I thought that my Thai friend whom I'm helping for her thesis is behind the surprise cake ...maybe it's her way of saying "thank you" for helping her. So on April 25, when my friends told me to visit me in the afternoon , I'm confident that they'll not go hungry with the cake and a pitcher of ice tea or a cup of tea

, I suppose.

I'm used of celebrating my birthday in a very simple way especially that we're in tight financial situation because we don't have salary on the month of April. What made it special this time is my friend brought some food to our house so I'm kinda forced to celebrate it with them

. Thanks to hubby , when he realized that we'll be expecting visitors he grabbed some pizza and other stuff from Pizza Company.

Three o'clock came, 4 o'clock, 5 o'clock...the "CAKE" didn't arrived. I'm wondering why so I called the number that called me last Friday . And you know what, no one could speak English to me

! I was trying to explain to them in my crooked Thai that I'm calling the same number who called me last Friday about the 'cake" that will suppose to be delivered at 3:00 pm. I just hang up when I realized it's worthless to talk to them. Oh, Thailand!

The celebration of my birthday is push through without the "mysterious cake"

. I hope my friends were full when they left the house.

with Faith and her friends Grace, belle and Sugar...thank you girls for coming...

Around 6:40 pm, the "mysterious cake" arrived! From where? From the Marce Club! I couldn't believe it! How are they able to order online for me

? If you checked S&P Bakery's website, it's on Thai (but you're able to translate the page). It doesn't stop Marce Pehpot to order a very yummy and pretty rose cake for me.

Thank you so much Marces: Pehpot, Niko, Seiko, Yami, Liz, Jade, Kaye, Fehdz, Chris, Kikamz and Mye for your warm messages and for the CAKE. You made me so HAPPY, so LOVED and so CARED for!

I'm sooo excited with my cake that I forget to comb my hair.
