Geeky Christmas

For those wondering how my gluten-free Christmas cake turned out, here is the evidence:

Ohh, cake!!

YAY HOGWARTS!!

Totally cracking up over your mom - heeheh :)

haha she reeeeally doesn't want you to grow a beard!!

So I am also kind of gluten free, I am allergic to wheat, but I can have rye and spelt flour which I can make cakes with.

That's the same as my mother, she can't have any wheat stuff. She gets those gluten-free flours on prescription so I use those for all the baking now.

Yay for cake success! Very nice presents too. I quite like the red shirt. ;)

You could grow a goatee! She didn't forbid that one! Maybe grow it into a little point like a very cunning villain-type.

It's a sweatshirt.

A goatee is still a beard though, it's just a style of beard.

I miss boozy British Christmas cakes! In the US they generally forget that key ingredient...

Along with the marzipan and icing too, I believe.

Errr ... your mum is very subtle! ;-)

It was a complete coincidence really! She'd got my sister some make-up and nail polishes so I got shaving stuffs instead.
