Maybe we should get the stuff together for a party. I'll bring the ...(see link) |
|
| |
Shouldn't that be the 4th halfbirthday? |
|
| |
Here's half a croissant. [sorry, I ate the other half.] |
|
| |
Half my bread is missing, so let them eat cake. |
|
| |
"Half a birthday to you,
Half a birthday to you!
Half a birthday, dear Halfbakery,
Half a birthday to you!" |
|
| |
Strange but true, it's also my farm's jockey's birthday...so as I read this, having just logged on today, I am eating cake with frosting and a horse on it. |
|
| |
Fortunately, the cake is not halfbaked so it it not half-bad although the frosting could do with half the sugar...... |
|
| |
Croissant for the b-day of the 1/2 B, a big "thank you" to Jutta for giving us this slice of life, and a piece of cake to [hippo] for noticing and bringing this to our attention. |
|
| |
Happy birthday halfbakery and congratulations jutta on a job more than half done. Although its actually now the 11th (hey! it was a choice between logging on or drinking more beer. Some of us have a sense of priorities you know.) |
|
| |
::::::::applause and croissants for all::::::::::::: |
|
| |
Big cake? Or small horse? |
|
| |
Halfy Birthday To you
Halfy Birthday To You
Halfy Birthday Dear .5Bakery...
Halfy Birthday to yoooooou...
|
|
| |
Susen, shouldn't that be 'whicker'? |
|
| |
or (s)nicker..... I think horses whinney, neigh, and nicker.....as well as snort, trumpet, and blow..... |
|
| |
UB....really small horse...actually made out of plastic....about 1 hand high. |
|
| |
(Funny, when I told the lady at the Dairy Queen that I wanted an ice cream cake with a horse on it, she didn't give me all this trouble! At least El Pedanto isn't teasing me!) |
|
| |
(Belated) happy 1/2 Bday to bakery and bakeperson alike. |
|
| |
Outstanding job, [jutta]. |
|
| |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oops - I was sunning myself by a pool in Italy this year
on 10th August, and failed to mark the
occasion.
Belated birthday cheer to the Halfbakery! |
|
| |
What Dog Ed said (last time round) - cheers dear Bakesperson. |
|
| |
So the birth of HB has been revealed to us newbies: 8/10/99. Thanks, all (tear) for making it all possible, especially, our dear queen, [jutta]. |
|
| |
...any stale cake left for me? |
|
| |
Happy 17 day late Halfbakery 3rd birthday! |
|
| |
Happy third birthday Halfbakery. Thanks jutta for making
it happen (and sticking with it for three years). |
|
| |
Thoroughly Babelfished Happy birthday song: |
|
| |
The commemoration day when it is valuable inside you in the place where the bakery is happy this line luck percentage L time of it at the time of the L it will be happy inside you commemoration day, commemoration day, the flag nyem one it is happy inside you and in the place |
|
| |
We should be able to vote each year on this one. |
|
| |
Belated happy birthday wishes to the halfbakery (dear god I'm insane I'm, wishing well to a website), and congratulations [jutta] for managing to stave off madness all these years. |
|
| |
The HB has the same birthday as my mother. This is great - if I'm still wasting, sorry, *spending* time here in a year at least I won't forget her birthday. Or at least I'll find out I've forgotten it on the day. Actually, I only noticed this thread 17 days after it was posted... |
|
| |
Oh well, it would be an improvement anyway. |
|
| |
Congrats [jutta] - your baby is now entering its third year. There's something beautifully circular in the way that the HB is the best idea of all time. |
|
| |
Hurray! Tomorrow marks my half-birthday on the halfbakery - 6 months already! |
|
| |
15th? same as no 1 son. happy birthday Rods |
|
| |
I've yet to see Mr Branagh come up with the kind of amazing stuff that you have, [Rods] - maybe he's a late developer. |
|
| |
---------------------------------------------------------
Posting this slightly early (not that early though if you live in NZ) as I'll forget otherwise:
Happy 5th Birthday! |
|
| |
Hip, Hippo, Hooray! (or "Hurrah!", depending upon your age, sex, land of origin, and literary predilection) |
|
| |
Now the 10th, at least here. Happy birthday bakery! |
|
| |
(Well remembered hippo. Do you have this marked on a calendar or something?) |
|
| |
Excellent Half-Birthday Cake graphic. |
|
| |
Happy birthday HB! Thankyou Jutta! Having only found you a few short months ago and still being unable to keep up with the influx of new ideas, I am aghast at having to recap five years of input. |
|
| |
Ahh..lets see who can blow out the virtual candles!"Oh and thanks Jutta" |
|
| |
Nice cake. Don't know who ate half of it though <looks at ceiling and whistles> Well done Jutta. |
|
| |
Happy anniversary hb. Thanks & congratulations to jutta. |
|
| |
Happy 5th birthday! Top piece of cake for top, top corner of the Interweb. |
|
| |
(Does the 'bakery go to elementary/primary school this year?) |
|
| |
HB HB
Many thanks to the bakesperson and all the moderators. |
|
| |
Mmmmm! Cake!
Many thanks for all your efforts jutta. Put your feet up and have a nice cup of tea as a reward. |
|
| |
Five years without a price bump or cost of living adjustment to the prix fixe menu. This must be the best bargain on the internet! For all you have created and so selflessly continue to give, thank you, Jutta. |
|
| |
Happy Birthday HB, and a big slice of cake for the Bakesperson and moderators. |
|
| |
<wonders what jutta's birthday wish would be>
Thank you, jutta and the moderators. |
|
| |
Thank you very much to Jutta and all her helpers. I've only arrived recently, but now find it hard to imagine life without the halfbakery. I love this place. Thanks again. Many happy returns. |
|
| |
Thanks for the cake, Jutta. Who sucked the middle out of my piece? |
|
| |
Cupcake! Yummy-cute!
Happy boithday! ;) |
|
| |
is it me or that everytime I look at that cake another bitesize piece has gone? |
|
| |
It's you, po - it's always you. |
|
| |
I thought the two-and-a-half candles was a nice Halfbaked touch. |
|
| |
[lostdog] Nice. Actually I still can't work out whether it's a cleverly photoshopped photo or a drawing. |
|
| |
HBday, and thank you, Jutta, for a great deal of fun. |
|
| |
Huzzah!
Huzzah!
Huzzah!
Three cheers for the Halfbakery, and to Jutta, its most obedient slave and master. |
|
| |
... An oasis of intense frivolity, dedicated to imagining the almost-possible! |
|
| |
It's quite a few days for me... 8th Aug: my halfbirthday, 9th Aug: my birthday, 10th Aug: The Bakery's birthday. I'm all partied out. |
|
| |
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ |
|
| |
It's that time again - Happy birthday everyone! |
|
| |
Happy birthday by the way! |
|
| |
Yaay! Made it on time this year. Happy Birthday 'bakery! |
|
| |
oh, look! here we are again. i just made it back in time. <throws {biodegradeable} confetti> |
|
| |
[Blows noisemaker] *toot* Wow, eight years. Thanks for sticking it out this long! |
|
| |
Coincidentally, I joined the 'bakery three years ago today. That means that in two years I will have been a member for half of it's existence. Keep on baking everyone! |
|
| |
Eight years! That is what, a century in internet time? |
|
| |
//Thanks for sticking it out this long!//
No, thank *you*! |
|
| |
oh, there you are, [hidden_truths]. i didn't see you standing back there... |
|
| |
Thank you all, my extended half family. |
|
| |
What [normzone] just said. Happy Birthday HB, and cheers, half-bakers, for all the doses of illumination, inspiration and insanity you've provided over the past year! |
|
| |
isn't [imaginality] and all our new friends just gorgeous |
|
| |
HB to the HB. Many half-y returns to Jutta, and to all the rest of you who make this place what it is! |
|
| |
Happy b-day 'Bakery. I wonder why noone has posted a happy half-birthday idea on February 10th... Hmm... |
|
| |
// I wonder why noone //
There's a kind of hush... |
|
| |
I won't have access to the internet on Monday so I thought that I'd get in first with a special 10th Anniversary, great big hug for jutta and the halfbakery! SURPRISE! (sp: corrected) |
|
| |
(sp. "SURPRISE")
Wow - 10 years. |
|
| |
10 years! happy birthday hb. |
|
| |
Happy 10th Birthday & thanks for being the
Halfbakery! |
|
| |
Wow - so Jutta's only ten now! |
|
| |
Apparently, the HB and I share a birthday. |
|
| |
Here I was thinking this was meant for me. :) |
|
| |
//I won't have access to the internet on Monday //
You *will* survive - just be strong. |
|
| |
Will there be hats and jelly? |
|
| |
ah yes, here we are: tinfoil birthday hat, inflatable walrus, blow-dart kazoo... |
|
| |
a mime has been stuffed and mounted just for you. |
|
| |
10 years! Thank you, jutta. |
|
| |
Half a score years ago our bakesperson brought forth on this interweb a new community, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all half-baked ideas are created equal. |
|
| |
We are simply not worthy. |
|
| |
Happy 10th Birthday Halfbakery - what an achievement! |
|

"'Space Command to Zoom, all systems are go for your message to the Halfbakery...' |
|
| |
'Hey Bakery, it's your birthday, I'm in charge of the stars and I'm hear to say Hey Bakery, you're the big star today! My name is Zoom and I live on the moon, and I came down to earth just to sing you this tune...'" |
|
| |
!Happy Birthday!
Keep up the good work everyone and Thanks once again, Jutta! |
|
| |
We need ten candles alit, atop the croissant.
Wow, 10 years of fun, education, distraction,
romance, sadness, bewilderment,
befuddlement,
bemusment, loss, and all around love... |
|
| |
Thank you jutta, thank you so much. |
|
| |
(sniff) 10 years old already...
They grow up so fast, the little ones... |
|
| |
Amazing! I sometimes wonder if the HB will be around in a century's time, or what could bring it to an end, and whether some day when we're all dead and gone, our ideas and annos will stay here as a monument to us all. That's already happened to some of us, of course. |
|
| |
Thanks yet again, [jutta], for all the fun. |
|
| |
Ha! I'd completely forgotten about this one. Thanks all for the virtual cake (oooh, I'm virtually full!) and the wishes. I hope some of your ideas get built, or at least fail in memorable ways. |
|
| |
//or at least fail in memorable ways.// Exactly the
encouraging words my dear old ma used to say... |
|
| |
It's my half-birthday today! 3 half-years old! Hooray! |
|
| |
But you look so young...(Happy half day, halfbaker.) |
|
| |
I can't believe I had forgotten about this idea. I guess I was off doing something else in early Augusts, each year. |
