In honor of my daughter Emmalie's sixteenth birthday tomorrow, an excerpt from one of her favorite books:
"Anyway -- Harry," said the giant, turning his back on the Dursleys, "a very happy birthday to yeh. Got summat fer yeh here -- I mighta sat on it at some point, but it'll taste all right."
From an inside pocket of his black overcoat he pulled a slightly squashed box. Harry opened it with trembling fingers. Inside was a large, sticky chocolate cake with Happy Birthday Harry written on it in green icing.
~ from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,
written by J. K. Rowling
FANTASTIC.
