Day 255: I Go To A Two Year Old's Birthday Party

I have just looked at this photograph, taken earlier today, and noticed something strange. Can you see it too? Something that shouldn't be on a table with sugar- and potato-based traditional birthday party comestibles?

As ever, no prizes, but I will tell you if you guess correctly. And no, it's not the cow.

It'll be the slightly tall & slender glass in the background, that might possibly hold innocuous apple juice, but is more likely to be a parental wine container, given the general inadvisability of leting two-year-olds loose with Real Glass?

P.S. What cow?

You fed gherkins to children ? Actual vegetable matter ? I'm surprised that didn't cause the 2-year olds to riot.

Is it wrong that I really like that table?. I've been looking for one like that for ages. Sorry, totallly off track I know.

VERY FEW CHILDREN there. Just actual relations, including a charming 26 month old who sat and stared at the cake longingly for half an hour without moving.

Johnnyboy, you are of course right, and win the prize - that I have now decided to award. Anything you'd like in particular?

it'll be something to do with banjos, I'll bet!

Is it too late to enter?

I think it's the tea-towel. Traditional headgear of the terrorist. Have you notified the authorities that Osama bin Laden is working undercover as a childrens' party clown?

Osama the clown has also left some Small Explosive Devices!

Have you undertaken a Risk Assessment on the Rainbow Bubbles? And I'll bet those cashew nuts *may* contain nuts.

i was most worried by the tea towel - because of the oppression and drudgery it implies.

gherkins and an empty wine glass! which child has been quaffing champagne?

Ok - I have to pop in out of nowhere to say it's the raisins.

If a two-year old (or, perhaps, an adult) sticks a raisin up his/her nose, it will take on moisture and swell to enormous proportions and might possibly require a hospital visit to remove it. Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything.

Also, if they fall on a pine floor and get squished, they resemble knots in the wood and may go undetected as squashed raisins for days. Or weeks. Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything.
