Sryashta spins golden yarn inside which she weaves your fate. (If you are a good and kind person, she may just take matters into her own capable hands and improve it.)
She is the goddess of good fortune and serves as the household assistant of Mokosh, the Slavic earth goddess.
Sryashta is a variant of the Dolya/Nedolya myth.

"Peep, peep, fatface!" said Thomas...
Primo's 5th birthday is tomorrow.
He has six cousins coming, their respective parents, and his grandparents.
The party theme is Thomas.
"Mom, can I have a Thomas cake?"
Sure, why not? After Peter Pan last year, Thomas should be a breeze.
I prefer whipped cream icing, as do my kids, and the only time I mind is when decorating cakes - buttercream (at least the fake stuff) is easier to work with in tubes...black icing is very strange...I ate a lot of icing- taste testing and whatnot, you know, and am now sick to my stomach as well as bluish-black-lipped and -teethed...no idea where I am supposed to fit the Happy Birthday message...every year I say, "Next year I am just buying the damn cake," and then I never do...
I am not likely to post till Monday as I have something like 14 adults and eight kids to feed tomorrow - baked ziti, green salad, bread. Chicken nuggets, macaroni and cheese, grapes for the kids (per Primo's request). Chocolate Thomas cake with whipped cream icing. Copious amounts of alcohol.
Happy Birthday, my firstborn. You changed my life in oh so many ways and I love you.

Happiest of days to big boy Primo!
Attaboy Primo.
Hell of a cake, too. I thought you DID buy it.

P.S. Normally I just make a plain sheet cake and stick the theme's figurines, as opposed to all that drawing and icing stucff at which I suck.
That's one beautiful cake. Good luck with the big party, and happy birthday to Five Year Old Primo.
What a great cake. I thought it was purchased until you stated otherwise. You did an awsome job!
Happy Birthday Primo!
The happiest of happies to Primo! That is indeed a bitchin' cake.
I wonder if BabBab can do ice cream cakes too. I'm hankerin' for Fudgy The Whale.
