The big 3-0.

No, that is not a score against life but now my age. (Pretend this post is back in mid-April.) A bit of an underwhelming birthday I must say.  My big plans fell through :( but I was able to snag a few friends for some fondue dinner and I stuffed myself accordingly.  Always nice to get dressed up a bit and go out for a meal.  Dadders came through with an enormous Spanish cookbook (1080 Recipes by Simone and InĂ©s Ortega) and mom has yet to deliver on the shared meal at Sea Breeze Farms.  To be fair, I got horrendously sick the Saturday we were planning to go and now we're just waiting for the weather to clear up a bit so the farm tour portion is less icky.  Lovely sing song from the sis and fam.  I think my favorite part of those phone calls is the parental coaching.  "Say happy birthday... say I love you!".  Totally precious.  The kids perform well for birthdays.  It was only the next week I was off for vacation so April treated me pretty well.
