Today the office sang happy birthday to a cake.
Bohr got a bag full of exploding fireworks cake candles that someone brought back from China for his mom. We took one and have been plotting all week how to have an excuse to light it. We found one girl whose birthday was last Sunday but she said she’d kill us if we made a big deal of it. I realized any cake that is baked that day would be celebrating a birthday. So I went and bought a red velvet cake, then we gathered everyone and had them sing happy birthday to it before lighting the explosive (gunpowder-containing) candle. It was satisfying.
Video footage of the crazy Chinese candle (as well as video of our office bbq football game shortly before Luke and I conked heads and nearly gave each other concussions) here.
