I had a wonderful birthday yesterday. Yes, it is on the 14th. My daughter, Amy, made me a delicious chocolate cake, and the boys gave me handmade cards. They also brought me peach colored roses (my favorite) and a gift.
My BFF (GB) cooked a whole turkey dinner complete with mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, green beans, and home-baked rolls in honor of my birthday. Everything was delicious, too. After all these years of being friends, I had no idea she was such a terrific cook. Hopefully, she'll contribute to the cookbook I plan on writing someday.
After that GB and I made various kinds of Christmas cookies, baking until 9:00 p.m. Then the fun began as we cleaned up all the while eating our newly baked goodies.
There were also many, many calls (most from NC - thanks), cards, and birthday wishes. Thanks everyone for the calls, cards, gifts, and wishes; they are all greatly appreciated.
It will be a birthday I will long remember.
