Yes, Happy birthday Dora, and to everyone who celebrates a birthday on Groundhog Day (Feb. 2). Here the groundhog would have seen his/her shadow - that means 6 more weeks of winter.

Take a large bowl, check the Champagne again. To be sure it is real Champagne, pour one level cup and drink. Repeat. Turn on the electric mixer. Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl. Add one teaspoon of sugar. Beat again. At this point it's best to make sure the Champagne is still OK. Try another cup ... just in case Turn off the mixerer. Break 2 legs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup of dried fruit. Pick fruit off floor. Mix on the turner. If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaterers pry it loose with a drewscriver. Sample the Champagne to check for tonsisticity. Next, sift two cups of salt. Or something. Who care-sh? Check the Champagne. If bottle empty, get another. Bottle. Of Champagne. Now shift the lemon juice and strain your nuts. Add one table. Add a spoon of sugar, or somefink. Whatever you can find. Greash the oven. Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall over. Don't forget to beat off the turner. Fin'lly, throw the bowl through the window, finish the Champagne and kick the cat. BAPPY HIRTHDAY!
