4th Birthday Party
Can’t not show the cake! (Previously)
Also, an unrelated announcement: Former Hairpin contributors or readers will hopefully be glad to know that the archives have been saved and preserved in their entirety over on The Hairpin Archives dot com! Enormous, eternal thanks to Carrie Frye, Lowell Allen, Eli Dickinson, Maria Bustillos, Dusty Matthews, Choire Sicha, and everyone else who made this possible. Carrie put together a wonderful writeup over on Flaming Hydra. It’s hard to find the words to express what this means to me.
The cake looks amazing, omg.
PS: The Hairpin for LIFE.
Your cake! Is amazing!!! I don't know if I'd be able to cut it!
Also - I'm so emotional about the Hairpin being saved, and I will be forever grateful to everyone involved. That site meant so much to so many of us, and apparently still lives close to the surface of my subconscious in particular. A car nearly hit me when I was crossing the street in Philly last week and I - pure reaction, no thought involved - pounded on the hood and yelled "WHAT THE HELL, JUICEBOX!?"
