Celebrate!

I have the Beatle’s song about birthdays running through my head. Today’s my birthday. We’re not planning a rousing celebration; rather, it will be a laid back day.
One of my nieces and her boys have been coming to dinner every other week. We’ve been trying to get together for the last two weeks, but she has had a virus, and didn’t want to share it with us as we prepared for the wedding last weekend. Soooooo….I think she is finally well enough to join us.
I plan to make lasagna, a big salad and garlic bread. And there’s this package of devil’s food cake mix, and some fudge frosting that’s been calling to me……
Usually we celebrate our birthdays by going out for dinner, but this week is pretty tightly booked. A few years ago I started telling my mother that we should all fly down to New Orleans to have dinner at the Courtyard of the Two Sisters. I tease her about it every year, but I haven’t gotten her to budge. Don’t you think it would be wonderful to hop a plane for a candlight celebration?
Where would you go to celebrate?

  1. Happy Birthday Bud!
    I’d go back in time to when Maggie Thatcher ‘resigned’..had such a good night the first time

  2. Thank you, ALL! It was lovely to see your messages.
    It’s been a quiet day here, but it was nice to share it with family and friends.
