Dina:
Never seen a cockroach? Awesome. Those are a plague here (not as much as in my building)

Once upon a time, I dropped a Coca Cola bottle, it opened violently and there was Coke everywhere. I had to paint the kitchen ceiling.

Regenbogen:
Only on TV. I believe they don't exist here. We only have midges, ants and wasps as insects that get into your home. Apart from the occasional spider or fly.

Sometimes we have wasp or hornets nests in a roller shutter case (not sure if that's the right words: you roll the thing down to shut the window for the night, so no light gets in).

Edit:
OK, I was wrong. I thought maybe they were extinct or something. But here they are:

But I have never seen any.

Regenbogen:
Sorry for the second post. I couldn't edit this into the first one.
This is the birthday cake. We received several videos or audios for her birthday.
I hope I am able to get the picture in.
It's a cheese cake.

Dina:
About cockrachaes, ok, you should be announcing that as a selling point to tourism there. I mean, our hotels don't have cockroaches either, they are very insistent with pest extermination but depending to conditions there are more or less common in the houses. For instance, when I lived with my parents in a house, we occasionally saw some cockraches in the patio or around the sewers from the garden, but nothing else. There were not really a problem. And when this building was new, there were very few cockroaches. But now, there are many. All the appartments have the problem now. At least, they are not too big. Instead, my late grand aunt, who lived in a house in the suburbia, had really awful big cockroaches.

The cake looks wonderful! And I like cheese cakes so I am sure is very yummy too  :D

Fcrate:
Nice cake Regen... I keep on imagining eating your cakes people that I'm starting to get fat again.
About cockroaches, it's mostly a city problem. In the country side there might be a few but they don't come into houses that often.
@Morris: Boric acid? I use that for eye infections in cattle and sheep sometimes. Never heard it'd do well against cockroaches.
About ants and other insects: Some gasoline around windows and doors is enough to keep them at bay.
