We were trying to think of a good theme for Richard Bonomo's birthday party this year, since we had already done Mardi Gras, Chocolate Brunch, Luau, and Presidents' Day. Then it occurred to us: of course! If his birthday party was on the 14th of February, then the theme should be obvious - Sts. Cyril and Methodius Day! With that in mind, I baked a cake that looked vaguely like a Russian Orthodox church and then decorated it with much help from Tiffy and "Mrs. Smith," a mathematicienne who also knows Russian. She wrote the message on the cake, which simply says "Khappee Beerthday Reech" in Cyrillic letters.
Here is the booty Rich got, because he "forgot" to ask people not to bring gifts.
Nothing says "Lent is on the way" like Christmas mugs!
Chocolate truffles are always a welcome gift.
What do you get when you cross chocolate with money? Perfection!
And here is the other side of the box.
Mr. Icon gave a typically tasteful gift: racing nuns!
And here they are in action.
