Yet another birthday is just about here and I’m gonna celebrate big this year! I have a kick ass supper party planned next week with many of my nearest and dearest. I am really looking forward to it! Plus I get to see several of my other wonderful pals for a boozy European style lunch. And of course all my special out of town friends are celebrating with me in spirit. Love it!
Oh and should some incredibly rich thoughtful person wish to spend big bucks to overnight express me a cake from L.A., please order my favorite Triple Berry Shortcake from Sweet Lady Jane. I’ll even share a piece with you. Oh heck, cake for all the blogosphere! Of course it would be even more wonderful if the lovely folks at Sweet Lady Jane actually sent me a cake for all this free publicity. That would rock. Especially since I almost never eat sweets anymore, but am ready to blow all my good intentions for a Triple Berry Shortcake from Sweet Lady Jane. The yummiest cake in the world. I miss it so! Kinda brings tears to your eyes, right? That’s what I thought. I’ll let you know what happens.
Happy Birthday to ME!!!
Happy Birthday, Lisa.
Lots and lots of cake for you! Hope ya have a happy, hoppy birthday sweetie! xoxo!!!
Wow, Happy Birthday to you indeed! I have a feeling you’re gonna have more than your share of bad stuff whether or not that cake arrives! Have a fantastic time and tell us all about it.
Happy Birthday!!!
Happy Birthday! That sure does sound like a wonderful cake. Nothing beats berries and sugar!
Happy Birthday, Lisa. Hope you throw in at least a little something Southern.
Haaaappy Birthday! Is this the year you turn 22?
which annual 29th is it??
and for the records, I often get my assistant coffee

Happy Birthday!
LB, did you know that birthday cake is calorie free all weekend?!, in particular on your day! So go ahead and enjoy as much of it as you want and have a wonderful birthday. xo
See, I’d be begging someone to spend the dough and hire me to work your party. I can bring treats.
Happy Lisa B-Day!
Happy birthday! So how’s it feel to finally turn 25? You certainly don’t look that old. What’s your secret?
Enjoy your party!
Does this mean I get cake on Sunday?
Happy birthday, LisaB! Sorry I didn’t mention it when I responded to your comment on my blog!
Happy Birfday sweetie. Hope it’s the best one so far.
I was looking at your favorite cake bakery which, not that I could get it for you, maybe we can all pitch in.
but it does not appear to deliver anyway. so you’re unfortunate. I saw your favorite immediately on their first page but 1. saw no price, which is just as well unless we get Trump to chip in and 2. no delivery options.
Unless you meant for someone to fly out there and bring it back!! Second thought is that you are worth it. I suppose I’ll fall back on tradition and wish you a simple Happy Birthday this year though. Ally Da Pup, be nice that day.
Nat – Thanks Sweetie! I’m gonna Partay big time this year
Heather B – Thanks!
Glo – Calorie Free??? You just made my day! Thank you!!!
Andy – If I had the money, I would hire you. What kind of treats do you provide?
Love “Lisa B-Day!”
Vince – Thanks! Oh and it’s clean living and a lot of water
Julie – To be determined
Phillip – Thanks!
Serra – Mucho appreciated, dear
Paul – I appreciate the thought
The reason the total cost of the cake would be so pricey is that Sweet Lady Jane does not ship their cakes. They are fairly fragile and most need to stay refrigerated. Including my favorite.
Thus, someone would have to “counter to counter” it i.e. hand deliver to the L.A. airport, pay through the nose to get it flown on the next flight to NY, then have it delivered to me.
OR
Someone would have to hand carry it, (if they could even get it through security!) on a plane from L.A. to NY. And the plane ticket would have to be factored into the price.
OR
Someone would have to own or lease a a private plane, (and be willing to do this special errand for me.)
Thus the $$$ price tag. Damn it.
Hey Lisa!
Happy happy birthday, girlie! I’ll have to stop buy with one of those cakes and we can tawk men…
Feliz cumpleanos, Lisa. Is alternate side parking suspended on your birthday?
Oh, those cakes are all beautiful! And from Melrose, Hoyty-toyty. I wish I could just walk in there right now and buy one in person. And send you half of it. Ha-ha!
Lisa, that’s where Trump came in, or Gates or Leno. Let me make some calls but….don’t wait up.
Well happy birthday, sweetie!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Lisa B!
If I could, I would charter you a little plane and we’d head over to LaLa Land for a weekend with a stop at the sinful bakery. But I can’t. So you you’ll have to settle for a wild night out here in our very own fair city! Looking forward to it. xo
The BLS – If you’re bringing my favorite b-day cake by, I’ll discuss just about anything
Marty – Thanks! And I’m not telling lol.
Annie – Aren’t the cakes pretty?! And LMAO by the by! Only half?
Paul – You got some powerful friends!
Jay – Thanks, dear!
Joel – Thank you
Deni – Maybe next year we’ll celebrate both our B-days in LA! And I’m looking forward to partying with you and Last Guy next week
I can’t tell you about the treats in advance. That would ruin the surprise.
Of course, I can almost guarantee that souvenir cards would be a part of the fun. lol
Oh happy birthday! It’s refreshing to see an adult look forward to one for a change, too!:)
Dang. I got lost on Sweet Lady Jane’s website. Wow. Those all looked incredible to me. Too bad they don’t ship. They should. We have something similar here called Piece of Cake. They don’t have as much variety and I think they’re not quite as fabulous, but they do ship and they are amazing.
Happy Birthday, LisaB! I hope you got/get some really wonderful goodies!
Happy Happy Birthday. I hope you get your special berry shortcake. Maybe you could get the recipe and one of your wonderful NY friends could make it for you. Or maybe someone will give you a ticket to LA so you can go taste your cake in person. Nice birthday dreams. Have a good one!
I’m starving and Triple Berry Shortcake sounds absolutely WONDERFUL!
happy birthday, lisa!
I’m late to this party, but I hope you have/had a great birthday!!!!!
Woo Hoo, Happy Birthday!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my BIG APPLE FRIEND, who by the way shares her day with my gigantic HUBBY, who infact could be the Jolly Green Giant if I had enough paint. So, now that you CAN VOTE, what ever shall you do with life???
Love you girl.
Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!
Sorry if I missed it! Happy Birfday, Lisa!!! {hugs}
[...] Finally, no cake from Sweet Lady Jane. Sigh. But you know what? I had such a great time that I didn’t really miss it. Much. Maybe next year. [...]
[...] I’m leaving this cold, blustery town and heading West. Yes folks, I’m off to LA for business and play – I just love it when those two things come together! I’m going to work, see friends, shmooze, and like I would miss it probably have a piece of cake. [...]
[...] Santa Monica and headed to Melrose. I know this will be a puhlease big shock to you guys, but I had a slice of Triple Berry Cake. Annie insisted on treating and it was so yummy! Annie and I always have fun [...]
