of cakes and presents

so these are the normal stuff one will get on a normal birthday. cake is mandatory and you will be so happy that you can finish it with the gang who gives it to you on the spot. dun keep the cake for yourself. let's share it together. that is the spirit.

this one is the first on monday morning...from a colleague...it became my morning break snack. the strawberry was already in my mouth ;P

nice eh? chocolate covered. but the sponge cake was so so. this came in the afternoon.

and this one just arrived yesterday.

i wonder who starts this birthday cake tradition on birthday. will a birthday be complete without a cake? or is it a gimmick popularised by bakers to sell their cakes??

and below is the most creative gift i received. what an effort. i have to solve the riddle to break the code. help! the riddle is solved now ...with some help...and i still have no idea what the code is..but hey...one of the nails did not stay on the hinge for long and i could retrieve the gift from the box. hehehehe....i think i appreciate both the locks more than the gift since they are more useful. hahaha

1- look at my face, you see no 13, and now would you kindly follow me around?

2- what is so fragile, that even when you speak of it you will break it?

creative huh? anyone who wants to leave answer for the riddle, you can do so here and i will verify the answers for you.
